Quote by Marcel Proust (1871-1922)

• We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us.

• A powerful idea communicates some of its strength to him who challenges it.

• Let us be grateful to people who make us happy, they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom.

• The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new lands but seeing with new eyes.

• Illness is the doctor to whom we pay most heed; to kindness, to knowledge, we make promise only; pain we obey.

• The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes but in having new eyes.
