• The hymns were unfamiliar to him, but he quickly picked up the general beat. The hymns had a redundant simplicity; the same phrases and tones appeared and reappeared.

But what a delicate mechanism. Danger for everyone...The easily-aroused Presence that was always nearby. Always listening.

  Philip K. Dick
