“If they had any idea what it was this word ‘imagination’ refers to, they would be able to accomplish miracles beyond the scope of the sum of their fictions. Unfortunately, they think it means ‘making stuff up’ and that it is a ‘skill’ which belongs to each person. It’s amazing to realize that this trap is a function of their imagination acting upon their imagination. I suppose that if one misinterprets what you interpret with, it locks you down like any other dangerous inmate. To put it bluntly, if you treat your intelligent wings like an object possession, they become a cage.”
