Utdrag ur boken:
What does a scanner see? Into the head? Down into the heart? Does it see into me, into us? Clearly or darkly? I hope it sees clearly, becuse I can't any longer see into myself. I see only murk inside and out. I hope for everyones sake the scanners do better. Because if the scanners sees only darkly the way I do, then I'm cursed. And cursed again. An we'll wind up dead this way.
