Marcel Proust
“To know a thing does not always enable us to prevent it, but at least the things we know we do hold, if not in our hands, at any rate in our minds, where we can dispose of them as we choose, and this gives us the illusion of a sort of power over them.”
Marcel Proust, Swann’s Way

Alice Walker
“I think it pisses God off if you walk by the color purple in a field somewhere and don't notice it. People think pleasing God is all God cares about. But any fool living in the world can see it always trying to please us back.”
Alice Walker, The Color Purple

Marcel Proust
“Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.”
Marcel Proust, Sodom and Gomorrah

Marcel Proust
“One becomes moral as soon as one is unhappy.”
Marcel Proust, Within a Budding Grove, Part 2

Marcel Proust
“Our desires cut across one another, and in this confused existence it is rare for happiness to coincide with the desire that clamoured for it.”
Marcel Proust, Within a Budding Grove
