Top 5 quotes from Marcel Proust
"The only paradise is paradise lost."
"If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time."
"It is often hard to bear the tears that we ourselves have caused."
"The paradoxes of today are the prejudices of tomorrow, since the most benighted and the most deplorable prejudices have had their moment of novelty when fashion lent them its fragile grace."
"I perceived that to express those impressions, to write that essential book, which is the only true one, a great writer does not, in the current meaning of the word, invent it, but, since it exists already in each one of us, interprets it. The duty and the task of a writer are those of an interpreter."
Top 5 quotes from Time
"It is only the modern that ever becomes old-fashioned."
"Time is a great teacher, but unfortunately it kills all its pupils."
"Neither a wise man nor a brave man lies down on the tracks of history to wait for the train of the future to run over him."
"Time is too slow for those who wait, too swift for those who fear, too long for those who grieve, too short for those who rejoice, but for those who love, time is eternity."
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again."
