“Believe me, if all those endearing young charms,
Which I gaze on so fondly today,

Like fairy-gifts fading away.”

Extrasensory perception will take precedence over sensory perception. And in this sphere woman will again predominate.”
—Elizabeth Gould Davis (b. 1910)
“Placing the extraordinary at the center of the ordinary, as realism does, is a great comfort to us stay-at-homes.”
