Où donc [...] les vieux ont-ils leur place en ce monde, lorsqu'ils sont contraints de quitter leur chez-soi qu'ils ont mis toute une vie à garnir? [...] Peut-on dire encore que l'on existe lorsque nul lieu ne vous est affecté?
Lydie Salvayre, La méthode Mila, Seuil, 2005
" In the last century, a tourist from the States visited the famous
Polish rabbi Hafez Hayyim.
He was astonished to see that the rabbi´s home was only a simple room filled with books.
The only furniture was a table and
a bench.
"Rabbi, where is your furniture?"
asked the tourist.
"Where is yours?" replied Hafez.
"Mine ? But I´m only a visitor here!"
" So am I " said the rabbi. "
