Marcel Proust
“The universe is real for us all and dissimilar to each one of us.”
Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time: The Complete Masterpiece

James Joyce
“It soared, a bird, it held its flight, a swift pure cry, soar silver orb it leaped serene, speeding, sustained, to come, don't spin it out too long long breath he breath long life, soaring high, high resplendent, aflame, crowned, high in the effulgence symbolistic, high, of the ethereal bosom, high, of the high vast irradiation everywhere all soaring all around about the all, the endlessnessnessness...”
James Joyce, Ulysses

Vladimir Nabokov
“How small the cosmos (a kangaroo's pouch would hold it), how paltry and puny in comparison to human consciousness, to a single individual recollection, and its expression in words!”
Vladimir Nabokov, Speak, Memory

James Joyce
“To discover the mode of life or of art whereby my spirit could express itself in unfettered freedom.”
James Joyce, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man

Marcel Proust
“Part of the beauty—and it is the original flaw in this type of literature, from which the famous Lundis are not exempt—lies in the impression made on the readers. It is a collective Venus, of which we have but one truncated limb if we confine ourselves to the thought of the author, for it is fully realised only in the minds of his readers. In them it finds completion.”
Marcel Proust, In Search of Lost Time: The Complete Masterpiece
