is a form of discursive practice, a 'narrative concept' synonymous with writing.

Walking according to de Certeau refers to a 'narrative concept' -- space is created through the process of walking, which is synonymous with writing-- and to a theorized concept-- the act of walking, which is synonymous with writing-- and to a theorized concept-- the act of walking becomes a form of discursive practice. De Certeau states that narrative structures function as spatial syntaxes, which take account of changes or movements in space. stories are 'treatments of space.' They organize, select and link places. Stories are 'spatial trajectories, which establish boundaries, but also surpass them.' (Re-writing Spatiality: The Production of Space in the Pilbara Region in . . . By Britta Kuhlenbeck)

is a form of meditation. When one stops, one ceases to think: One's mind works only with one's legs.

I can meditate only when I am walking. When I stop, I cease to think: my mind works only with my legs.Jean-Jacques Rousseau

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.

The true charm of pedestrianism does not lie in the walking, or in the scenery, but in the talking. The walking is good to time the movement of the tongue by, and to keep the blood and the brain stirred up and active... the scenery and the woodsy smells are good to bear in upon a man an unconscious and unobtrusive charm and solace to eye and soul and sense... but the supreme pleasure comes from the talk. Mark Twain

is an act in the urban system what the speech act is to language.

The act of walking is to the urban system what the speech act is to language.Michel de Certeau

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'.

Isn't it really quite extraordinary to see that, since man took his first step, no one has asked himself why he walks, how he walks, if he has ever walked, if he could walk better, what he achieves in walking .. questions that are tied to all the philosophical, psychological, and political systems which preoccupy the world. Honore de Balzac

It is a great art to saunter ! Henry David Thoreau

is lacking a place. It is the indefinite process of being absent and in search of a proper.

To walk is to lack a place. It is the indefinite process of being absent and in search of a proper. Michel de Certeau

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.

Above all, do not lose your desire to walk: every day I walk myself into a state of well-being and walk away from every illness... I have walked myself into my best thoughts, and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.
