Marcel Proust Quotes
She poured out Swann's tea, inquired "Lemon or cream?" and, on his answering "Cream, please," said to him with a laugh: "A cloud!" And as he pronounced it excellent, "You see, I know just how you like it."

Many an inherited sorrow that has marred a life has been breathed into no human ear.
