“It would be wrong of me to suppose that just because I can form private mental images, that everyone can. As Francis Galton and William James long ago showed, a small proportion of adults-and some of these extremely intelligent-are unable to form such visual images.

The temptation to pontificate in that way reveals a narrowness and unwillingness to see the world from another perspective.”
