I only know that I know how to walk (To paraphrase Socrates).
It would be very interesting to know what great thinkers and other creators have said about walking. From a few we have been able, in the course of time, to scrutinize in their works some references that have had about it, but it is too complicated and time consuming to carry out an investigation about it, for that reason I have decided better to leave it posed what I would ask them -according to what I have understood of each one in his specialties and in his inclinations- in 2 or 3 key words, on his onceptualization in relation to walking. I have chosen some authors that I once related to them in a poem, and now I direct them the question in concomitance with walking.
I would like to comment, for those who are very strict in the structural conformation of thought, that the configuration of the questions do not have a rigid or consistent form, so that some are affirming the thinking, ideas or ideology of the person to whom they direct, others in clear contradiction, others contrary to their feelings, others are ironic, but all of them pursue a single objective: WALKING.

There were too many questions, and many of them, of the philosophical type -if you can say that-; however, in a subsequent post, which have passed a couple of months to give me the opportunity to investigate, I will be able to present quotes from some of these thinkers and creators about walking, that they have done in their time.
Could you reflect or speculate what answer these people would have regarding the previous questions? We await your comments.
