"The mythical place

somewhere in the center

of the brain where it

all comes together is

our consciousness,

"You can tell me that

fire is hot, but I would believe it

more if I felt it burning,"

you will believe it to exist

or be true, despite the fact

that it is extremely unusual

'or unexpected,

is simply a more abstract

metaphorical way of talking

about content, a metaphor

which neatly evades the talk of

pictures versus sentences,

now that behaviorism is history

we are prepared to insist that

this peripheral response

is mediated by another

what you have been put into

not only grounds your

astonishment if the magician

now turns over the cup,

this is what I called

the manifold in Two Approaches

to Mental Images,"

talk is just as metaphorical

as language of thought talk

or pictures in the head,

What exactly is the product of

a perceptual process?

Let's consider a garden variety case

of this theme in slow motion,

working backwards from peripheral

behavior to conscious perception.
