"At first sight experience seems to bury us under a flood of external objects, pressing upon us with a sharp and importunate reality, calling us out of ourselves in a thousand forms of action. But when reflexion begins to play upon these objects they are dissipated under its influence... the cohesive force seems suspended like some trick of magic; each object is loosed into a group of impressions – colour, odour, texture..." (Walter Horatio Pater)
