"I'm about to have one of those famous drug insights that hippies always talk about, he thought. But the mermaid broke apart into pentagons of red, orange, yellow...
And a unicorn winked at him. Man, it said, am I ever horny!
Those sketches I made the other day, Saul thought... but the screen asked him:
IS THE THOUGHT OF A UNICORN A REAL THOUGHT?
... and he suddenly understood for the first time what the words 'a real thought' meant; what Hegel meant by defining the Absolute Idea as pure thought thinking about pure thought; what Bishop Berkeley meant by denying the reality of the physical world in seeming contradiction of all human experience and common sense; what every detective was secretly attempting to detect, although it was always right out in the open; why he became a detective in the first place; why the Universe itself became, why everything;
and then he forgot it;
caught a fleeting glimpse of it again - it had something to do with the eye at the top of the pyramid; and lost it again in visions of unicorns, stallions, zebras, bars, bars, bars."
