THE HOUSE OF CULTURE


In the House of Culture, the roof of spirit is always the
first to go. Then the foundation of meaning, left exposed to
wind and rain, soon begins to fragment and crumble. The
walls of learning and education, however, sometimes remain
standing for centuries, reminders of what has been, with their
empty windows starring out into the distance like the unclosed
eyes of the dead. The question we cannot help but ask
ourselves is: “Why did no one take care of the roof?”
