Cesare Pavese
“We do not remember days, we remember moments. The richness of life lies in memories we have forgotten.”
Cesare Pavese

Gaston Bachelard
“The poetic image […] is not an echo of the past. On the contrary: through the brilliance of any image, the distant past resounds with echoes.”
Gaston Bachelard, The Poetics of Space

Rosie Thomas
“I will continue my path, but I will keep a memory always.”
Rosie Thomas, Iris & Ruby

Gaston Bachelard
“If I were asked to name the chief benefit of the house, I should say: the house shelters day-dreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace. ”
Gaston Bachelard

Gaston Bachelard
“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, The Poetics of Space
