...my Teacher had told me concerning "light'' and "shade'' and "perspective''; and I did not hesitate to put my difficulties before him.
the exact position - unclearness
See, I am building up a Solid by a multitude of Squares parallel to one another. Now the Solid is complete, being as high as it is long and broad, and we call it a Cube.
I am not a plane Figure, but a Solid. You call me a Circle; but in reality I am not a Circle, but an infinite number of Circles, of size varying from a Point to a Circle of thirteen inches in diameter, one placed on the top of the other. When I cut through your plane as I am now doing, I make in your plane a section which you, very rightly, call a Circle. For even a Sphere - which is my proper name in my own country - if he manifest himself at all to an inhabitant of Flatland - must needs manifest himself as a Circle.
An eye in my inside! An eye in my stomach! Your Lordship jests.
Ah Tanrı hazretleri, sizin şu şakalarınız.
