“ Wisdom cannot be inherited – one must discover it for oneself, but only after following a course which no one can follow in your stead; no one can spare you that experience, for wisdom is only a point of view on things. ”
Marcel Proust, In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower (1919). copy citation
