“M. Proust was more severe than M. de Caillavet on Anatole France: "He was selfish and supercilious. He had read so much that he had left his heart in other people's books, and all that remained was dryness. One day I asked him how he came to know so much. He said, 'Not by being such a handsome young man as you. I wasn't in demand, and instead of going out I studied and learned'.”
Céleste Albaret, Monsieur Proust

“He wanted to know all about me and my family and especially my childhood.

"That's where everything starts," he'd say. "Both heaven and hell.”
