"what would happen if some of us then started to see, hear, touch, smell, and taste things?"

"A sensuous geography maby therefore lay some claim to reasserting a return of geographical to the fullness of a living word or everyday life as a muntisensual and mutidimensional situatedness in space and in relationship to places."

"the senses are not merely passive receptors of particular kinds of environmental stimuli but are actively envolved in the structuring of that information and are significant in the overall sense of a world achieved by the sentient. In this way, sense and reality are related."

"The senses both as a relantionship to a world and the senses as in themselvesa kind of structuring of space and defining of place."
