Listen to me, Defecates-with-Pigeons. Long before any of you came here, we dream'd of you. All the people, even Nations far to the South and the West, dreamt you before ever we saw you, - we believ'd that you came from some other World, or the Sky. You had Powers and we respected them.

You could not be the Giants of long ago, who would simply have wip'd us away, and for less.

Tho' we now pursue real lives no different at their Hearts from yours, we are also your Dreams. — Thomas Pynchon
