"My earliest memory is dreamlike: in a small orchard or garden I am carried on the arm, I believe, of my father; there was a group of grown-ups, my mother among them, and the group was slowly walking in the orchard, it seems toward the house"

This quote by Immanuel Velikovsky paints a vivid picture of his earliest memory. It is dreamlike, recommending that it may not be a real memory, however rather a combination of memories and creativity. He remembers being continued the arm of his father, and a group of grown-ups, including his mother, gradually walking in an orchard or garden. This suggests a sense of security and security, as he is being brought by his father and surrounded by the grownups in his life. The group is walking towards the house, which could symbolize the comfort and familiarity of home. This quote is a beautiful reminder of the importance of household and the memories that can be produced in the simplest of moments.
