Maybe those stories did more harm than good by giving us false hope. All they did was reinforce our faith that the world was once made up almost entirely of magic or miracles. But where was that magic now, when we needed it?

About This Quote

We all have a belief of what the world is like, and we need that to survive. In this quote, the writer is suggesting that the world was once made up almost entirely of magic or miracles. Only that magic has been lost, and now we have false hopes instead. A miracle is a special event that cannot happen again in the same place and at the same time.

The writer suggests that miracles are rare and cannot be recreated. The world is not a magical place where everything is a miracle anymore, so it makes sense to wonder where our miracles have gone. If we can no longer rely on miracles to happen, we must rely on ourselves.
