Theodor AdornoThe body's habituation to walking as normal stems from the good olddays. It was the bourgeois form of locomotion: physicaldemythologization, free of the spell of hieratic pacing, rooflesswandering, breathless flight.

Thewalk, the stroll, were private ways of passing time, the heritage ofthe feudal promenade in the nineteenth century.
