“By means of an ingenious series of strategically deployed denials of the most exciting and exotic things, he was able to create the myth that he was a psychic, mystic, telepathic, fey, clairvoyant, psychosassic vampire bat.

It was his own word and he vigorously denied that it meant anything at all.”
-- Douglas Adams, "Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency"
