Some of the most iconic characters of all time are witches, and the notion that you can be a good witch or a bad witch remains pervasive in pop culture beginning with The Wizard of Oz and now through to Wicked.These witchy quotes are uttered by many different types of witches, but the main theme is very much the same—being a witch comes with tremendous power and therefore great responsibility.
