Quote #10
Jux positioned me at another anthill. It took me a very long time to come to the simple solution: I moved my thoughts to the honey, not the ants. Once the honey itself seemed to be telling them it was poisonous, the ants backed away. (60.7)
Here's an interesting thought: maybe it's possible to communicate with animals and inanimate objects as well as with people. Hahp figures out that he can send his thoughts into a glob of honey in order to accomplish the task he's given (to make the ants not eat the honey). We wonder what it's like to try to communicate with something you can eat.
