Marcel Proust Quotes
This Was Not To Say, However, That She Did Not Long, At Times, For Some Greater Change, That She Did Not Experience Some Of Those Exceptional Moments When One Thirsts For Something Other Than What Is, And When Those Who, Through Lack Of Energy Or Imagination, Are Unable To Generate Any Motive Power In Themselves, Cry Out, As The Clock Strikes Or The Postman Knocks, For Something New, Even If It Is Worse, Some Emotion, Some Sorrow; When The Heartstrings, Which Contentment Has Silenced, Like A Harp Laid By, Yearn To Be Plucked And Sounded Again By Some Hand, However Rough, Even If It Should Break Them; When The Will, Which Has With Such Difficulty Won The Right To Indulge Without Let Or Hindrance In Its Own Desires And Woes, Would Gladly Fling The Reins Into The Hands Of Imperious Circumstance, However Cruel.
