For instance, take the two words “footlong” and “meatball”. Make up your mind that you will say both phrases, but leave it unsettled which you will say first. Now open your mouth and speak. If your thoughts incline ever so little towards “footlong”, you will say “footlong meatball”; if they turn, by even a hair’s breadth, towards “meatball”, you will say “meatball footlong”; but if you have the rarest of gifts, a perfectly balanced mind (as all things should be), you will say “Football meatlong”. - Lewis Carroll
