“We're eye doctors."

"What's something about the eye that most people don't realize?"

"The eye doesn't see. The brain sees. The eye just transmits. So what we see isn't only determined by what comes through the eyes. What we see is affected by our memories, our feelings, and by what we've seen before.”
Brandon Stanton

A.S. Peterson
“Don’t seem right, do it?” said Topper.

“It ain’t right,” replied Fin. “Not at all.”

Jack guzzled his wine and wiped at his beard. “Mayhap it’s right and we can’t see it...”

Jack dropped his flagon to the deck and it rolled away clattering. “Yeah, well, what seems ain’t always what is.”
A.S. Peterson, Fiddler's Green

Kate A. Boorman, What We Buried

Anthon St. Maarten

Ray   Smith
“She looked at his face, his lined, well-lived face. You were right. This perfect moment, in her once-desolate bedroom, was John’s belief at its apotheosis. She realized she wouldn’t have believed it before—that, in the most hopelessly constricted of places, you could find the fulfillment to all your dreams of adventure and romance. No, she wouldn’t have believed it. Not twenty years ago, not ten years ago, not a year ago. She had to reach forty-eight years of age to realize the truth and to internalize it. Forty-eight long years of groping in the dark. How silly she felt now and how blessed.”
Ray Smith, The Magnolia That Bloomed Unseen
