    Hi Ian, all,

    On this topic:

    Keats: ""I am certain of nothing but of the holiness of the Heart's affections and the truth of the
    Imagination--what the imagination seizes as Beauty must be Truth--whether it existed before or
    not...The imagination my be compared to Adam's dream--he awoke and found it truth."

    "Beauty is truth, truth beauty,' - That is all
    Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know. "

    I'm re-reading Dirk Gently at the moment (which contains the first quotation above).

    Sam
