In conclusion, I must beg your pardon, before the authentic famine
that I assume honors my readers, for having begun this theoretical
meal, which one might have hoped to be wild and cannibalistic, with
the civilized imponderable factor of caviar and fini****ng it with the
even headier and deliquescent imponderable of Camembert. Don=92t let
yourself be taken in: these two superfine semblances of the
imponderable conceal a finer, well-known, sanguinary, and irrational
grilled cutlet that will eat all of us up. -THE CONQUEST OF THE
IRRATIONAL, Salvador Dali
