Yes, the textbook that I'm reading now starts with a quote from The Matrix.
Sensation and Perception, if you buy the older edition used, comes pretty cheaply (I paid just over 4$ for it). The new edition is way more expensive, in the 150$ to 160$ range.
The older edition is missing new research about the vomeronasal gland (although there is a notation that you can get that information on-line if you have the CD.) I don't, but I'm pretty sure I've gleaned all that info from other sources.
The quote actually makes sense, in that context....
