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.
Bachelard quotes
Two half philosophers will probably never a whole metaphysician make.
Bachelard
There is no original truth, only original error.




Bachelard Gaston quotes
To live life well is to express life poorly; if one expresses life too well, one is living it no longer.
Bachelard Gaston
One must always maintain one’s connection to the past and yet ceaselessly pull away from it. To remain in touch with the past requires a love of memory. To remain in touch with the past requires a constant imaginative effort.
