So much of the uncanny-or the holy, for that matter-is inward experience. As such, testimony about it tends to be tainted. People lie. People delude themselves, or others. People are swayed or frightened or convinced they have seen things they have not. People are, frankly, sometimes simply mad. (Lois McMaster Bujold)
