Marcel Proust Quotes:
Ocupation: Novelist
Life: July 10, 1871 - November 18, 1922
Birthday: July 10
Death: November 18
Facts do not find their way into the world in which our beliefs reside; they did not produce our beliefs, they do not destroy them; they may inflict on them the most constant refutations without weakening them, and an avalanche of afflictions or ailments succeeding one another without interruption in a family will not make it doubt the goodness of its God or the talent of its doctor.
