MARCEL PROUST and a LOVELY QUOTE


I found this lovely quote in I'LL SEE YOU IN PARIS by Michelle Gable. 

"Let us be grateful to the people who make us happy; they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom."  Marcel Proust

My review of I'LL SEE YOU IN PARIS will be on my blog on February 9.

Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust (/pruːst/;[1] French: [maʁsɛl pʁust]; 10 July 1871 – 18 November 1922) was a French novelist, critic, and essayist best known for his monumental novel À la recherche du temps perdu (In Search of Lost Time; earlier translated as Remembrance of Things Past), published in seven parts between 1913 and 1927. He is considered by many to be one of the greatest authors of all time.[2][3]

    This is a great quote. I am grateful for those in the my life who accept me for who I am and who love me as much as I love them.

    A very lovely quote. I've always thought we are all made up of the people we meet throughout our lives, especially the people who encourage us to better ourselves. :)
