Străzile miros întotdeauna altfel. Fiecare stradă are mirosul ei special și parcă lumina lor e felurită, e personală; sunt oameni care par mai frumoș… - Mircea Eliade
" "Străzile miros întotdeauna altfel. Fiecare stradă are mirosul ei special și parcă lumina lor e felurită, e personală; sunt oameni care par mai frumoși, sau mai tineri, pe anumite străzi. Sunt străzi bune, altele rele; sunt unele cu prezențe fantastice, altele frivole. Și vitrinele au fiecare un strigăt al lor, neînțeles de toată lumea.[...] A nimerit o stradă bună, asta e. O stradă pe care eu pot vorbi, o stradă care să-mi descopere deodată ceva de care să mă pot agăța. Și o vitrină în fața căreia voi putea reflecta.

About Mircea Eliade
Mircea Eliade (13 March 1907 {O.S. 28 February} – 22 April 1986) was a Romanian historian of religion, fiction writer, philosopher, and professor at the University of Chicago. His most enduring and influential contribution to religious studies was possibly his theory of Eternal Return, which holds that myths and rituals do not simply record or imitate hierophanies, but, at least to the minds of the religious, actually participate in them.

Symbolic thinking is not the exclusive privilege of the child, of the poet or of the unbalanced mind: it is consubstantial with human existence, it comes before language and discursive reason. The symbol reveals certain aspects of reality – the deepest aspects – which defy any other means of knowledge. Images, symbols and myths are not irresponsible creations of the psyche; they respond to a need and fulfil a function, that of bringing to light the hidden modalities of being.
