“Jacques lo siguió con el espíritu excitado que tenía siempre que se sentía próximo a la conquista de un libro deseado, un manuscrito raro, de algo que encerrarse en sí, de algún modo, aquel misterio latento que tienen los objetos de los otros cuando fueron amados y valorados por ellos. Apropiarse de esos objetos significa quizás conservar en cierto modo una chispa de aquel amora, de aquel placerr, y sentirse finalmente satisfecho.”
Lorenza Foschini, Proust's Overcoat: The True Story of One Man's Passion for All Things Proust

“El hecho de que la inteligencia", escribe Proust en Albertine desaparecida, "no sea el instrumento más sutil, más poderoso, más apropiado para captar la verdad, no es sino una razón de más para comenzar por la inteligencia, y no por la intuición del inconsciente, no por una fe preconcebida en los presentimientos. Es la vida que, poco a poco, caso por caso, nos permite comprender que lo más importante para nuestro corazón o para nuestro espíritu, no lo llegamos a conocer por el razonamiento sino gracias a otras fuerzas. Y entonces la inteligencia misma, al darse cuenta de la superioridad de estas, abdica por razonamiento y acepta colaborar con ellas y servirlas.”
Lorenza Foschini, Proust's Overcoat
