“In the one instance, the dreamer ... loses sight of this object in a wilderness of deductions and suggestions ... until ... he finds the incitamentum, or first cause of his musings,... forgotten.

—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

“We thought ourselves lucky to secure the services of this man, who was known to be particularly steady and trustworthy.”
