Incidentally, the world is magical. Magic is simply what's off our human scale... at the moment.
Vera Nazarian
Is it folly to believe in something that is intangible? After all, some of the greatest intangibles are Love, Hope, and Wonder. Another is Deity. The choice to be a fool is yours.

Creativity is not so much a boundless well, but an all-you-can-eat buffet of elements for your creative endeavor. Eventually you've eaten your fill, and it's time to digest and then make something. But at some point, it will be time to return to the restaurant.

Listen to the trees as they sway in the wind. Their leaves are telling secrets. Their bark sings songs of olden days as it grows around the trunks. And their roots give names to all things. Their language has been lost. But not the gestures.
Vera Nazarian
Respect the young and chastise your elders. It's about time the world was set aright.

And it is a quiet terrible thing, too, to discover the value of love this way [after loss] - when the object of love is no longer there, when love dies or goes away or changes. When it is too late.

Fantasy, at its best, is balm for the soul. But it is faulty logic to assume that balm is necessarily mind-numbing anesthesia.
Vera Nazarian
When tough times come, it is particularly important to offset them with much gentle softness. Be a pillow.
Vera Nazarian
Wisdom is nothing more than the marriage of intelligence and compassion. And, as with all good unions, it takes much experience and time to reach its widest potential. Have you introduced your intellect to your compassion yet? Be careful lately, intellect has taken to eating in front of the TV and compassion has taken in too many cats.
Vera Nazarian
A boomerang returns back to the person who throws it.
Vera Nazarian
Why does every road eventually narrow into a point at the horizon? Because that's where the point lies.
Vera Nazarian
However I will never forget what Marion [Zimmer Bradley] did for me by accepting that first story from a stupid enthusiastic kid.
Vera Nazarian
I've just been bitten on the neck by a vampire... mosquito. Does that mean that when the night comes I will rise and be annoying?

Ice is most welcome in a cold drink on a hot day. But in the heart of winter, you want a warm hot mug with your favorite soothing brew to keep the chill away. When you don’t have anything warm at hand, even a memory can be a small substitute. Remember a searing look of intimate eyes. Receive the inner fire.

I think fantasy literature is the one true literature of hope and imagination.

I am sure that inspiration will strike multiple times - it always does.
Vera Nazarian
I was forgetting that an artist also just stares at a piece of paper or canvas all day. It somehow never occurred to me to connect these two diverse creative modes.

The heartland lies where the heart longs to be. Sometimes it takes a lifetime to find the true place to plant it.
