Anne Spollen
I looked around at the rooms that I did not see as rooms but more as a landscape for my emotions, a biography of memory.
Anne Spollen, The Shape of Water

Robert Macfarlane
We tend to think of landscapes as affecting us most strongly when we are in them or on them, when they offer us the primary sensations of touch and sight. But there are also the landscapes we bear with us in absentia, those places that live on in memory long after they have withdrawn in actuality, and such places -- retreated to most often when we are most remote from them -- are among the most important landscapes we possess.
Robert Macfarlane, The Old Ways: A Journey on Foot
