• John Putnam : [John is arguing with Dr. Snell about what he saw]  I don't know what's odd and what isn't anymore. But I do know that I expected you to be more open to the idea than the others, you're a man of science!

  Dr. Snell : Therefore less inclined to witchcraft, John.

  John Putnam : Not witchcraft Dr. Snell, imagination. Willingness to believe that there are lots of things that we don't know anything about. Look, there was a time when people though that the Earth was a level plain, between two mountains that were set there to hold up the sky! And that the stars were lamps hung from that sky! Then a better idea came along and people were willing to listen!
