Marcel Proust Quotes

And More Even Than The Painter, The Writer, In Order To Achieve Volume And Substance, In Order To Attain To Generality And, So Far As Literature Can, To Reality, Needs To Have Seen Many Churches In Order To Paint One Church And For The Portrayal Of A Single Sentiment Requires Many Individuals. For If Art Is Long And Life Is Short, We May On The Other Hand Say That, If Inspiration Is Short, The Sentiments Which It Has To Portray Are Not Of Much Longer Duration. It Is Our Passions Which Draw The Outline Of Our Books, The Ensuing Intervals Of Repose Which Write Them.
