Marcel Proust Quotes
There, Whenever Mme Swann Had Anything To Say To Me Which She Did Not Wish The People At The Next Table Or Even The Waiters Who Brought Our Tea To Understand, She Would Say It In English, As Though That Had Been A Secret Language Known To Our Two Selves Alone. As It Happened Everyone In The Place Knew English - I Alone Had Not Yet Learned The Language, And Was Obliged To Say So To Mme Swann In Order That She Might Cease To Make, About The People Who Were Drinking Tea Or Serving Us With It, Remarks Which I Guessed To Be Uncomplimentary Without Either My Understanding Or The Person Referred To Missing A Single Word.
