Blue, green, grey, white, or black; smooth, ruffled, or mountainous; that ocean is not silent. ~H. P. Lovecraft

Faerie Paths — Doorways
Every present moment will offer itself as a window onto eternity, a doorway to the infinite.
~Deepak Chopra
Faerie Paths — Dusk
Soon it got dusk, a grapy dusk, a purple dusk over tangerine groves and long melon fields; the sun the color of pressed grapes, slashed with burgundy red, the fields the color of love and Spanish mysteries.
― On the Road
Faerie Paths — Snow
Snow was falling,
so much like stars
filling the dark trees
that one could easily imagine
its reason for being was nothing more
than prettiness.
~ Mary Oliver
Faerie Paths – Moments
Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.
~ Aaron Siskind
Faerie Paths — Blinders
I’ve always believed in experiencing everything in life. When you walk out with blinders on, you cut yourself off from the angels and the fairies.
~ Alyssa Milano
Faerie Paths — Frost
Frost grows on the window glass,
forming whorl patterns of lovely translucent geometry.
Breathe on the glass, and you give frost more ammunition.
Now it can build castles and cities
and whole ice continents with your breath’s vapor.
In a few blinks you can almost see the winter fairies moving in . . .
But first, you hear the crackle of their wings.
― Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of Inspiration
Faerie Paths — Pursue
Pursue some path, however narrow and crooked, in which you can walk with love and reverence. ~Henry David Thoreau
Faerie Paths — Golden Tree
I sang of leaves, of leaves of gold, and leaves of gold there grew:
Of wind I sang, a wind there came and in the branches blew.
Beyond the Sun, beyond the Moon, the foam was on the Sea,
And by the strand of Ilmarin there grew a Golden Tree …
― The Lord of the Rings
Faerie Paths — Lights
… every child can remember laying his head in the grass, staring into the infinitesimal forest and seeing it grow populous with fairy armies…
~ Robert Louis Stevenson
Faerie Paths — Paths
Sometimes when you lose your way in the fog, you end up in a beautiful place. Don’t be afraid of getting lost.
Faerie Paths — Laughter
When the first baby laughed for the first time, its laugh broke into a thousand pieces, and they all went skipping about, and that was the beginning of fairies.

Faerie Paths — Dew Drops
The world globes itself in a drop of dew.
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Faerie Paths — Let Go
We must be willing to let go of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
Faerie Paths — Layers
… as we travel again between life and death,
Waking and dream, blinking, while layers within layers,
None better, none worse, unravel and knit up before us …

Faerie Paths — Beyond
Some people meet the way the sky meets the earth, inevitably, and there is no stopping or holding back their love. It exists in a finished world, beyond the reach of common sense. ~ Louise Erdrich
Faerie Paths — Choice
There are thousands of directions you can go every day —
Why settle for just one? ~Dream Regret
Faerie Paths — Change
Believe something and the Universe is on its way to being changed. Because you’ve changed, by believing. Once you’ve changed, other things start to follow. Isn’t that the way it works?
― Diane Duane, So You Want to Be a Wizard
Faerie Paths — Singular
Tink was not all bad: or, rather, she was all bad just now, but, on the other hand, sometimes she was all good. Fairies have to be one thing or the other, because being so small they unfortunately have room for one feeling only at a time. They are, however, allowed to change, only it must be a complete change.” J.M. Barrie, Peter Pan
Faerie Paths — Circles
Few humans see fairies or hear their music, but many find fairy rings of dark grass, scattered with toadstools, left by their dancing feet.
Judy Allen, Fantasy Encyclopedia
Faerie Paths — Secrets
And above all, watch with glittering eyes the whole world around you because the greatest secrets are always hidden in the most unlikely places. Those who don’t believe in magic will never find it. ~Roald Dahl
Faerie Paths — Footsteps
The fairies break their dances
And leave the printed lawn.
~A.E. Housman
Faerie Paths — Singing Stars
a Spectre in the Eastern Veil
I want to be magic. I want to touch the heart of the world and make it smile. I want to be a friend of elves and live in a tree. Or under a hill. I want to marry a moonbeam and hear the stars sing. I don’t want to pretend at magic anymore. I want to be magic. ~ Charles de Lint
