Now people mostly report seeing large triangles instead of discs or boomerangs, because that is what they are told to expect to see."

"My main nurturing instinct toward children is mild sadism--picking them up and threatening to drop them--which is why I am a good uncle but would make a poor father."
"[H]e had heard of, but given little credence to, magic. There was always someone talking of folk remedies and charms, but it seemed to him the inclination of fools misunderstanding chance."
