(Old)

I was in a courtroom and Satan appeared to me (Ivan Karamazov) as a large dinosaur. A number of spectators were seated behind me, but there was no speech, just something in the air which we all understood tacitly.

The dinosaur (he reminded me of a bad magician) performed a number of feats for us. We did not so much as flinch. It was like we were observing a bad hologram.

The mind is guilty of plagiarism.
