Venice is ever the fragile labyrinth at the edge of the sea and it reminds us how brief and perilous the journeys of our lives are; perhaps that is why we love it so.

You are the only city in the world whose dialect has a word for the shimmer of canal water reflected on the ceiling of a room.
Erica Jong

Haruki Murakami
