“Reading is that fruitful miracle of a communication in the midst of solitude” ―Marcel Proust


“No days, perhaps, of all our childhood are ever so fully lived as those that we had regarded as not being lived at all: days spent wholly with a favourite book. Everything that seemed to fill them full for others we pushed aside, because it stood between us and the pleasures of the Gods.” – Marcel Proust, A Selection of His Miscellaneous Writings, translated by Gerard Hopkins (A Wingate, 1948)
