"Il y a longtemps que j'ai pris l'habitude de noter non seulement les étapes et incidents de mes voyages, mais les événements petits et grands de ma vie quotidienne, le temps qu'il fait, les métamorphoses de mon jardin, les visites que je reçois, les coups durs et les coups doux du destin. On peut parler de "journal" sans doute, mais il s'agit du contraire d'un "journal intime". J'ai forgé pour le définir le mot "extime"." Michel Tournier.
