I've always been baffled by this one

Ha, you just reminded me of this from Alister Crowley...I feel it resembles what you are saying...of which I agree.




THE SORCERER







A Sorcerer by the power of his magick had subdued



all things to himself.



Would he travel? He could fly through space more



swiftly than the stars.



Would he eat, drink, and take his pleasure? there



was none that did not instantly obey his bidding.



In the whole system of ten million times ten million



spheres upon the two and twenty million planes he



had his desire.



And with all this he was but himself.



Alas!
