Bachelard, from The Poetics of Space
"For the house furnishes us dispersed images and a body of images at the same time. In both cases, I shall prove that imagination augments the values of reality."
"We are never real historians, but always near poets."
"Through poems, perhaps more than through recollections, we touch the ultimate poetic depth of the space of the house."
"Thus we cover the universe with drawings we have lived. These drawings need not be exact. They need only to be tonalized on the mode of our inner space."
