Marcel Proust Quotes About Attitude

Quotes about: Attitude

• 

  The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.

  Marcel Proust

  Inspirational, Life, Positive

• We do not receive wisdom, we must discover it for ourselves, after a journey through the wilderness which no one else can make for us, which no one can spare us, for our wisdom is the point of view from which we come at last to regard the world. The lives that you admire, the attitudes that seem noble to you, have not been shaped by a paterfamilias or a schoolmaster, they have sprung from very different beginnings, having been influenced by evil or commonplace that prevailed round them. They represent a struggle and a victory.

  Marcel Proust
