There is a kind of net that is as old as Methusaleh, as soft as a cobweb and
as full as holes, yet it has retained its
strength to this day. When a demon wearies of chasing after yesterdays or of
going round in circles on a windmill, he
can install himself inside a mirror. There he waits like a spider in its
web, and the fly is certain to be caught."
-Isaac Bashevis Singer, The Mirror
