The one that got away
'...If on the other hand he went to
pay his respects to the Door, and it wasn't there...
what then? The answer, of course, was very simple. He had a whole
board of circuits
for dealing with exactly this problem, in fact this was the very
heart of his function.
He would continue to believe in it whatever the facts turned out
to be, what else
was the meaning of Belief? The Door would still be there, even if
the door was not.'
- Douglas Adams
