1 note

It frightens me to think that if I hadn’t met you I’d have gone on being stupid. Don’t deny it, you’ve opened up a world of ideas for me that I didn’t know existed, and if I’ve made anything of myself, it’s because of you.

Albertine to the Narrator.

Marcel Proust, The Prisoner, translated by Carol Clark, p. 54.
