One’s standards are not high, and one is no great judge, in things one does not care about. The friendliness of a person whom we no longer care for, though it may seem too much to our indifference, might have been deemed too little by our love.
 Marcel Proust, In the Shadow of Young Girls in Flower (1919). copy citation
