I used to build up to sensation, accumulating tension until it released a perceptual experience

It was the greatest sensation of existence: not to trust but to know.

I was an overnight sensation.

It was an exceptional sensation, reading by spiderlight.

Everything was fine, and she had the rare, new sensation of being exactly where she wanted to be.

For a sensation to be felt as pain is for it to be pain

Every twinge of sensation, even of agony, was a negation of death.

I have no use for knowledge that has not been preceded by a sensation

It's a weird sensation to be mad and learning at the same time.

The life of sensation is the life of greed; it requires more and more. The life of the spirit requires less and less.
