"The past, as we think of it, changes constantly, but those changes are determined, however obscurely, by us. They vary as moods vary or as weather alters from one moment to the next. The key is the rhythm but the rhythm is ours alone, dictated by memory."
(Morgan, S (1995) Rites of Passage; Art for the End of the Century. Tate Gallery Publications: London)

"For dwelling-as-residing is not necessarily sedentary; not the literal absence of motion but finding a relatively stable place in the world is what matters in such dwelling. Such finding is possible even when in motion. The earth offers continual if sometimes uncomfortable accommodations as one moves across its surface. If human beings may peregrinate in place, so they may also dwell stably even as they move from place to place.
