Marcel Proust Quote

Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.


The Guermantes Way (1920)


Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.

Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.

Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.

Illness is the most heeded of doctors: to kindness and wisdom we make promises only; pain we obey.
