"'What would happen if we took everything that exists in the universe, and divided it by one? I'll tell you. It would remain the same. So, therefore, how do we know that someone isn't doing that right now, at this very instant? It makes me shudder to think of it. We might be constantly divided by one, or multiplied by one for that matter, and we wouldn't even know it!'"Craig Binkey, in Mark Helprin, Winter's tale (San Diego: Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich, 1983), 396.
