„The chief benefit of the house: the house shelters
daydreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in
peace.
The values that belong to daydreaming mark humanity in its
depths. Daydreaming even has a privilege of autovalorization. It derives direct
pleasure from its own being.
Therefore, the places in which we have experienced daydreaming reconstitute themselves in a new daydream,
and it is because our memories of former dwelling-places are relieved as
daydreams that these dwelling-places of the past remain in us for all time.
The house is one of the greatest powers of integration for
the thoughts, memories and dreams of mankind. The binding principle in this
integration is the daydream….It maintains man through the storms of the
heavens and through those of life. It is body and soul. It is the human being’s
first world.”
