10 QUOTES WITH «THE SUPERNATURAL»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word the supernatural.
1
Edward Abbey
Belief in the supernatural reflects a failure of the imagination.
2
Amelia Barr
Whatever the scientists may say, if we take the supernatural out of life, we leave only the unnatural.
3
Michael Behe
It is often said that science must avoid any conclusions which smack of the supernatural.
4
Art Bell
The greatest question of all is whether our experience on this planet is 'it' or whether there is something else. Things in the supernatural realm give support, strangely perhaps, to the things we take on faith.
5
Georges Bizet
As a musician I tell you that if you were to suppress adultery, fanaticism, crime, evil, the supernatural, there would no longer be the means for writing one note.
6
Andrew Coyle Bradley
Shakespeare also introduces the supernatural into some of his tragedies; he introduces ghosts, and witches who have supernatural knowledge.
7
Trudi Canavan
I have always been fascinated by the supernatural elements in stories, whether fairy tales, myths, film or literature.
8
Kresley Cole
One of my favorite things to do is formulate powers for a character, then come up with their corresponding weaknesses and liabilities. And I delight in world-building: melding the supernatural with the natural, then tweaking and polishing until it feels organic.
9
Nigel Cole
Amongst my friends, I am known as the most cynical person they know - I'm incredibly cynical. I don't believe in God, I don't believe in the supernatural, I don't believe in anything! And I'm terribly cynical, and somehow or other, all three of my films and much of my television work has been rather sentimental, and 'heartwarming'.
10
Ted Dekker
Most believers struggle to really believe in the supernatural as a meaningful, deterministic reality except during moments when they are drawn to it, perhaps during a worship service or while reading a novel like 'Adam.' Being drawn to this truth is the first step to living a life in accordance to this truth.
