✶
“We comfort ourselves
by reliving memories
of protection.
Something closed must
retain our memories,
while leaving them
their original value
as images.
Memories of
the outside world
will never have
the same tonality
as those of home
and,
by recalling these memories,
we add to our store
of dreams;
we are never real
historians,
but always near poets,
and our emotion is perhaps
nothing
but an expression
of a poetry that was lost.”
– Gaston Bachelard
