But the wicked passions of men’s hearts alone seem strong enough to leave pictures that persist the good are ever too luke-warm  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) No man can describe to another convincingly wherein lies the magic of the woman who ensnares him  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) But the wicked passions of men’s hearts alone seem strong enough to leave pictures that persist the good are ever too luke-warm.  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) I used to tell strange, wild, improbable tales akin to ghost stories, and discovered a taste for spinning yarns.  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) Not easily may an individual escape the deep slavery of the herd  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) And if thought and emotion can persist in this way so long after the brain that sent them forth has crumpled into dust, how vitally important it must be to control their very birth in the heart, and guard them with the keenest possible restraint  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) It is, alas, chiefly the evil emotions that are able to leave their photographs on surrounding scenes and objects and whoever heard of a place haunted by a noble deed, or of beautiful and lovely ghosts revisiting the glimpses of the moon?  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) No place worth knowing yields itself at sight, and those the least inviting on first view may leave the most haunting pictures upon the walls of memory  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) The dark side of life, and the horror of it, belonged to a world that lay remote from his own select little atmosphere of books and dreamings  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) When common objects in this way be come charged with the suggestion of horror, they stimulate the imagination far more than things of unusual appearance; and these bushes, crowding huddled about us, assumed for me in the darkness a bizarre grotesquerie of appearance that lent to them somehow the aspect of purposeful and living creatures. Their very ordinariness, I felt, masked what was malignant and hostile to us  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) The best match in the world will not light a candle unless the wick be first suitably prepared  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) Adventures come to the adventurous, and mysterious things fall in the way of those who, with wonder and imagination, are on the watch for them; but the majority of people go past the doors that are half ajar, thinking them closed, and fail to notice the faint stirrings of the great curtain that hangs ever in the form of appearances between them and the world of causes behind  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes) My imagination requires a judicious rein; I am afraid to let it loose, for it carries me sometimes into appalling places beyond the stars and beneath the world  (Algernon Blackwood Quotes)
