See, too, the following from
  a Log24 entry of last Monday–

"To von Eschenbach, the Grail
was never really a material cup,
but a jewel like the
jewel in the lotus,

a symbol of enlightenment,
of something intangible
and always
beyond reach."
Arcadian Functor

— in this context:

"Philosophers ponder the idea
of identity: what it is to give
something a name
on Monday
and have it respond
to that name
  on Friday…."

  The New York Times
