Walking is a form of meditation. When one stops, one ceases to think: One's mind works only with one's legs.
Walking is lacking a place. It is the indefinite process of being absent and in search of a proper.
Walking is a form of discursive practice, a 'narrative concept' synonymous with writing.
Walking is the transporting not just of the body, but also of the self. One can walk oneself into a state of well-being, one can walk away from every illness and burdensome thought, and one can walk oneself into one's best thoughts.
Walking is about the talking... it serves to pace the movement of the tongue, to keep the blood and the brain stirred up and active while the scenery and the woodsy smells are good to bear in upon a man an unconscious and unobtrusive charm and solace.
Walking is, ever since man took his first step, tied to all the philosophical, psychological, and political systems which preoccupy the world, and yet no one has stopped to ask himself why he walks, how he walks, if he has ever walked, if he could walk better, what he achieves in walking'.
