"I reflected that even in the languages of humans there is no proposition that does not imply the entire universe; to say "the jaguar" is to say all the jaguars that engendered it, the deer and turtles it has devoured, the grass that fed the deer, the earth that was mother to the grass, the sky that gave light to the earth."
- Jorge Luis Borges
The Aleph and Other Stories
a not unfamiliar phenomenon on the horizon of shimmering deserts."
- Vladimir Nabokov
