Quotes by Alastair Bonnett (?)

“Turning complex, diverse places into shallow, simple ones creates a more culturally vulnerable population, an unrooted mass whose only linking thread lies in the ideology that is fed to them from above.”
― Alastair Bonnett, Unruly Places: Lost Spaces, Secret Cities, and Other Inscrutable Geographies

“Place is the fabric of our lives, memory and identity are stitched through it. Without having somewhere of one鈥檚 own, a place that is home, freedom is an empty word.”
― Alastair Bonnett, Unruly Places: Lost Spaces, Secret Cities, and Other Inscrutable Geographies

“Modern places are made up of layers of incomplete visions of the future, and the result is a permanent state of impermanence.”
