Quote by Marcel Proust

“O lovitură scurtă în fereastră, ca și cum ceva ar fi izbit-o, urmată de o amplă cădere abia simțită, de parcă o mînă de fire de nisip s-ar fi prăbușit de la fereastra de deasupra, apoi mișcarea extinzîndu-se, regularizîndu-se, adoptînd un ritm, devenind fluidă, sonoră, muzicală, atotcuprinzătoare, universală: începea să plouă.”
