Year Proust

Famous quotes containing the words year and/or proust:

    A writer is in danger of allowing his talent to dull who lets more than a year go past without finding himself in his rightful place of composition, the small single unluxurious “retreat” of the twentieth century, the hotel bedroom.
    Cyril Connolly (1903–1974)

    The time at our disposal each day is elastic; the passions we feel dilate it, those that inspire us shrink it, and habit fills it.
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
