“To put a city in a book, to put the world on one sheet of paper -- maps are the most condensed humanized spaces of all...They make the landscape fit indoors, make us masters of sights we can't see and spaces we can't cover.”

“Ruins are ideal: the perceiver's attitudes count so heavily that one is tempted to say ruins are a way of seeing.”
Robert Harbison, The Built, the Unbuilt, and the Unbuildable: In Pursuit of Architectural Meaning
