But what if another shape is hiding in the heavens? Davus: Another shape? Lady, there is no shape more pure than the circle; you taught us that. Hypatia: I know, I know, but suppose - just suppose! - the purity of the circle has blinded us from seeing anything beyond it! I must begin all over with new eyes. I must rethink everything!... What if we dared to look at the world just as it is. Let us shed for a moment every preconceived idea - what shape would it show us?
