  \bigquote{“And what does it mean,” said Mr. Thornton, “to be an isn’t?”

  “It means that perhaps if you wish us to end your wars, and your
  famines, and your suffering,” the fairy said, “you should clap
  harder, Mr. Thornton; or wish harder; or burn the brighter in
  yourselves.”}{---“ ‘Isn’ts’ ”, from the Gibbelins’ Tower Archives}

  \bigquote{Jane scans the siggort. It has two wings. It is covered in
  feathers. Its stomach is roly-poly. It has two long legs. It has a
  wheel of knives. It’s innocently vivisecting passersby and leaving
  their corpses for investigators to discover. It has a long yellow
  beak. It uses its beak for smiling. It can also sing.}{---“Scanning
  Things”, a performance of the Gibbelins’ Tower Theater Company}

  \bigquote{The wogly has pale blue skin and two winky eyes. It’s
  shaped like a torus. Woglies say “hiss!” Inside the wogly it’s
  empty. Integrity leaks out of the universe into the wogly. It’s not
  eating moral integrity — it’s eating the integrity things have that
  make them the way they are. It’s a serious problem, but someone else
  will deal with it.}{---“Scanning Things”, a performance of the
  Gibbelins’ Tower Theater Company}

  \bigquote{Nonexistent bees aren’t real. It’s very important that you
  remember that. If you ever see a nonexistent bee, you’re just
  someone the Gibbelins’ Tower Theater Company made up. It’s tragic,
  but you know how it is! If you were a nonexistent bee, you’d
  harbinge fictionality too.  You’d harbinge fictionality, and you’d
  love it. You know you would. It’d be like sex, chocolate pie, and
  bean bags.  All rolled into one.}{---“Rolled. Into. One.”, a
  performance of the Gibbelins’ Tower Theater Company}
