"what he saw was a time nexus within this cave, a boiling of possibilities focused here, wherein the most minute action ... moved a gigantic lever across the known universe to change the trolley path"

full quote:

The prescience, he realized, was an illumination that incorporated the limits of what it revealed- at once a source of accuracy and meaningful error. A kind of Heisenberg indeterminacy intervened: the expenditure of energy that revealed what he saw, changed what he saw.

And what he saw was a time nexus within this cave, a boiling of possibilities focused here, wherein the most minute action - the wink of an eye, a careless word, a misplaced grain of sand - moved a gigantic lever across the known universe. He saw violence with the outcome subject to so many variables that his slightest movement created vast shiftings in the patterns.

The real golden path was all the planets we subjugated along the way

The golden path is really just a set of tracks.

I see the prime path, guys! I see it!
