"The world, though it does not realize it, cannot live without magic! Man hears of the dragon's impenetrable skin and lo, he makes armor, battleships, tanks. A fairy flies, and furiously jealous, Man himself defies gravity with machines he will one day call airplanes. A magician looks into his crystal and sees and hears halfway around the world. "Ah", says Man, "if only it could be so", and centuries from now, he conjures up miracles but calls them radio and television. If Man is to surmount the insurmountable, there must always be magic to inspire him. The world needs magic. Magic cannot die."
