Threshold is door, and it has a double
significance: border and crossing over. It indicates where one
thing ends and another begins. The border which marks the end of
the old makes possible entry into the new. ... Threshold is not,
however, only borderline; it is also crossing over. One can step
over it into the adjacent room, or, standing on it, receive him who
comes from the other side. It is something that unites, a place
of contact and encounter.
