I say that whatever must happen, will happen. If all the prerequisites are ready, why should something not happen? This is the case with works of art as well. If a novel is not sound from an aesthetic point of view, then I have not done a good job, and there is something missing; but if I have worked well, the thing is bound to happen. You are bound to be drawn into my magic circle, and you will come to know and love the rules of this magic circle. - Magda Szabó
