The magic had started to degrade, and Rosemary had slowly but surely become thoroughly, gruesomely human. And there were few things worse in this world than humans.

About This Quote

When the magic becomes less and less, it can be a very bad thing. For example, when a person is cursed with a witch’s magic, there is also a gradual degradation of their humanity. This can make a person very evil and even cruel to those around them. In this quote from The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, the author has shown that Rosemary begins falling from her spot as the only purebred witch in the world.

As she becomes more and more human, she can no longer perform spells as effectively as she once did. And as a result, she becomes much more human and therefore more dangerous to those around her.
