Kloge ord

Man er vel ikke museumsmoster for ingen ting. Faldt lige over et citat, som måtte med:

"The heimat museum must not be a kingdom of the dead, a cemetery. It is made for the living; it is to the living that it must belong, and they must feel at ease here…The museum must help them to see the present in the mirror of the past, and the past in the mirror of the present … and, if it fails in that task, it becomes no more than a lifeless collection of objects.”
Det er fra Stephen E. Weils bog "Making Museums Matter"
