"What a profound significance small things assume when the woman we love conceals them from us."
Love
"People wish to learn to swim and at the same time to keep one foot on the ground."
Time
"And like an aviator who rolls painfully along the ground until, abruptly, he breaks away from it, I felt myself being slowly lifted towards the silent peaks of memory."
Memory
"It is always thus impaled by a state of mind which is destined not to last that we make our irrevocable decisions."
Life
"People do not die for us immediately, but remain bathed in a sort of aura oflife which bears no relation to true immortality but through which theycontinue to occupy our thoughts in the same way as when they were alive. Itis as though they were traveling abroad."
Grief
"We do not succeed in changing things according to our desire, but gradually our desire changes."
Desire
"That our words are, as a general rule, filled by the people to whom we address them with a meaning which those people desire from their own substance, a meaning widely different from that which we had put into the same words when we uttered them, is a fact which is perpetually demonstrated in daily life."
Communication
"Love is a striking example of how little reality means to us."
Love
"...infirmity alone makes us take notice and learn, and enables us to analyse mechanisms of which otherwise we should know nothing. A man who falls straight into bed night after night, and ceases to live until the moment when he wakes and rises, will surely never dream of making, I don't say great discoveries, but even minor observations about sleep. He scarcely knows that he is asleep. A little insomnia is not without its value in making us appreciate sleep, in throwing a ray of light upon that darkness. An unfailing memory is not a very powerful incentive to the study of the phenomena of memory."
Health
"There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favorite book."
