Marcel Proust
What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us.
Marcel Proust
Error, by force of contrast, enhances the triumph of Truth.
Marcel Proust
To be an artist is to fail, as no other dare to fail... failure is his world and the shrink from it desertion
