[...] Jane said she thought this data, tacked on at the close, referred to the fact that she has an idea to sell a weekly column on ESP to the local paper, and has been working up samples lately.

[...] When I remarked that I tried not to worry about such things anymore, she replied that she too had better get back to book work and forget the world’s troubles: “Come on, Seth, I’m here.” [...]

Science, however, seeing the body as a mechanism, has promoted the idea that consciousness is trapped within a mechanical model, that man’s suffering is mechanically caused in that regard: You simply give the machine some better parts and all will be well (amused). Science also operates as magic, of course, so on some occasions the belief in science itself will seemingly work miracles: The new heart will give a man new heart, for example.

[...] If you believe that the inner self works against you rather than for you, then you hamper its functioning — or rather, you force it to behave in a certain way because of your beliefs.

[...] Some of  you already know the evenings in which you will work and the area in which you will be involved. [...]

[...] At last I began to idly speculate about the problems involved in explaining Seth to others; among these others being my boss at work, Harry Gottesman.

[...] I understand quite well the necessary limitations that we have to work with. [...]

[...] When I went to work this morning Jane went out to the garage with me. [...]

[...] Here is the rest of the story involving the second cat: After I left for work and Jane had taken the cat into the house, she discovered to her sorrow that the cat had somehow gotten its lower jaw caught in a new collar we had put on it the day before, and that evidently the cat’s lower jaw had been forced open in this strained position for some hours.
