Chapter 188: The House and the Portal

 "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

"Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes."

C.G. Jung

"Man is not what he thinks he is, 
he is what he hides."

André Malraux

"Sometimes, you don't know when you're taking the first step through the door until you're already inside."

Ann Voskamp, One Thousand Gifts: A Dare to Live Fully Right Where You Are

"Every now and then one paints a picture that seems to have opened a door and serves as stepping stone to other things."

Pablo Picasso

"There will always be a door to the light."

Shiro Amano, Kingdom Hearts, Vol. 1

"He stepped fully into the house. The air inside was cool on his skin. He turned, expecting the front door to close on its own. But it stayed open, as it was supposed to. He shook his head, chiding himself for letting an old house spook him. He walked into the kitchen. Behind him, the front door slammed shut."

Robert Liparulo, House of Dark Shadows
