“What does this remind me of? this hollow containing people staring at a blank wall: some image of the mind that for thousands of years has been in the mind: Plato’s cave, where people sit with their backs to the sun and see the shadows cast on the wall in front’ their intimations of reality. And they do not turn to the sun.”
