“I don't know why, but the warmth and the comfort of flickering light help. And a fire, in the fireplace or on the beach, is very comforting.

The small-scale familiar is also very comforting. Especially in the twenty-first century, when the world is rapidly changing and there are many risky situations, I think we need to build on and protect the comfort that we have in our neighborhoods in a way that does not exclude others.” PeopleThinkingWorldInterestingSituationComfortProtectUniqueExcitingFamiliarNeighborhoodComforting Author:Sharon Zukin
