Spirit Events

Famous quotes containing the words spirit and/or events:

“It is up to my spirit to find the truth. But how? Grave uncertainty, each time the spirit feels beyond its own comprehension; when it, the explorer, is altogether to obscure land that it must search and where all its baggage is of no use. To search? That is not all: to create.”
—Marcel Proust (1871–1922)

“All the events which make the annals of the nations are but the shadows of our private experiences.”
