experience.

Synopsis:
"
for in order to get nearer to the sound of the bell and to hear it better it
was into my own depths that I had to re-descend. And this could only be because
its peal has always been there, inside me, and not this sound only but also,
between that distant moment and the present one, unrolled in its vast length,
the whole of that past which I was not aware that I carried about with me."
(Proust 1983)
