Life is magic. I knew, without having to ask, what she meant. Life was not the magic of spells or enchantments or sorcery; or, it was, but that was not the point.

Life was magic in a more mundane sense of the word; the act of living being magic all of its own. This was something we instinctively understood - it simply hadn't occurred to us that it might need explaining. Kate Griffin
