“I put my two hands together, the left over the right or, if you prefer, the left swallowing the right. To prove the action, I placed a certain amount of clay between them and pressed until the clay began to come out through my fingers, making the gesture as noticeable as possible. I repeated the action ten times. So that I would not forget.”
