"It's a silent oasis in the noisy confusion of the world, isolating phenomena so that they can be seen undistractedly. What is being collected are not the artifacts themselves but the undivided attention of the visitors. That is the museum. It lies in the mind of the viewers." ~Diane Ackerman
We love the Museum of Natural History! We'll have to make the trip again soon, as I think our daughter would enjoy it even more now that she a little bit older.
ReplyDeleteVery cool! We don't have any museums like that too close to us. Enjoy. http://www.becauseimme.net/2011/11/this-moment_25.html
