[...] This amounts to a bleed-through, and I use the term purposely, for your recorder can serve us here in an analogy.

[...] We are not dealing however with anything as simple as a mechanical recorder, for our tapes, in analogy, are constantly changing.

We must use analogies. [...]

[...] The analogy may not be a perfect one, far from it, but it is as if your breath were to be suddenly cut off. [...]

[...] Forgive me if this is a trite analogy, I almost hate to say it, but it bends with the wind. [...]

[...] You can understand this analogy, Joseph. [...]

[...] Using your terms again, and your scientific framework, when you look outward away from your planet, and when you assume that you are looking backward in time, you are simply looking into, or toward, what may be described for analogy’s sake, the center, or core, of an infinite sphere; which exists, you see, in your terms as far on the other side of the inner core, and in all directions. [...]

Let it be understood that for simplicity’s sake we have been dealing with analogies that can be understood by you. [...]

[...] When continuity is taken into consideration however then the analogy is a poor one, since the word channel seems to imply a more or less permanent opening, and this is not true. [...]

I would like to make an analogy. [...]

Using an analogy again, the brain is quite capable of operating on innumerable “frequencies,” each presenting its own picture of reality to the individual, each playing upon the physical senses in a certain manner, organizing available data in its own specialized way, and each dealing somewhat differently with the body itself and with the contents of the mind.

[...] Now in some important respects the reasoning mind is like the government in this analogy. [...]

[...] This amounts to a bleed-through, and I use the term purposely, for your tape recorder can be used as an analogy.

“I am trying to make the analogy clearer. [...]

I am grateful to your psychologists’ ideas concerning multiple personalities, since they present excellent analogies—

(Bill Gallagher had something to say, by way of analogy, about Socrates and the city street cleaners.)

[...] This is an analogy—replicas of this room containing each of you exists now as you think of now in many other realities. [...]

[...] Following this analogy, everyone sees a slightly different picture of reality, and follows his or her own program — yet all of the “sets” are the same.

We will use an analogy for its excellent implications. [...]

[...] And I hope you understand what I mean or I shall be forced to go into another analogy about a flower. [...]

[...] Now by this analogy, you see, the soft voice is the holy voice and the loud voice is the wicked voice and the firm step is the bad voice and the soft step is the good voice and a strong desire is the bad desire and a weak one the good one so that you become afraid of projecting ideas outward or desires outward, for in the back of your mind you think that what is powerful is evil and what is weak is good and must be protected and coddled and prayed for and begged for. [...]

[...] Please understand that I am using an analogy here. [...]

[...] Purely as a spectator this would loosely represent an analogy to my traveling to other planes. [...]

[...] The analogy is difficult on your terms. [...]

[...] And while this may be a poor analogy, the ulcer represents a creation of something new to the physical structure.

[...] I thought that situation analogous to ours, for I can think of nothing left to rely upon except ourselves. [...]

In those terms, using our analogy, the recognition of Framework 2 would bring you from that point to the production of great art, where words served to express not only the seen but the unseen — not simply facts but feelings and emotions — and where the words themselves escaped their consecutive patterns, sending the emotions into realms that quite defied both space and time.

Now, to some extent, you and Ruburt felt enough the same way to make the analogy feasible, only Ruburt was the one who constructed the edifice that would protect his own abilities, first of all, and yours as well. [...]

[...] The analogy may not be perfect, far from it, but it is as if your breath were to be suddenly cut off — in a manner, this somewhat approximates pain for a tree.

[...] You can understand the analogy, Joseph. [...]

Seth has used several analogies to explain this point. [...]
