Year Proust

Famous quotes containing the words year and/or proust:

    And year by year our memory fades
    From all the circle of the hills.
    Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)

    But, when nothing subsists from a distant past, after the death of others, after the destruction of objects, only the senses of smell and taste, weaker but more enduring, more intangible, more persistent, more faithful, continue for a long time, like souls, to remember, to wait, to hope, on the ruins of all the rest, to bring without flinching, on their nearly impalpable droplet, the immense edifice of memory.
    —Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
