'Everything is extraordinary. In all of infinity and eternity, that flower exists only in this world; this precise posi- tion in space and time. Everywhere else, there is a different flower, or no flower at all. And the same is true of you. Nothing special? You are miraculous beyond measure, both of you.” Perhaps not yet,' said the tyger, 'but you have the potential. Every human being has it. At first, only immortals did. But then someone stole a spark from the fires of infinity, and gave it to your kind. So now the power of creation is yours, like perception and imagination. And with these powers, there is nothing you cannot do.” Doubt anything you like,’ said the tyger, fi tv rand proud. ‘Doubt the clouds in the sky, the movements of the tide, or the turning of this world around its sun.
