Each thing (the moon in the mirror, say) was infinite things, because I clearly visible from all points of the universe. I saw the populous sea, saw dawn and saw the afternoon, I saw crowds of America, saw a silvery cobweb in the center of a black pyramid, saw a splintered labyrinth (it was London), saw endless eyes scrutinizing me as immediate a (...) mirror I feared that would not be a single thing capable of being surprised, I was afraid I would not leave the impression ever again. " Jorge Luis Borges, The Aleph.
