The only true voyage, the only bath in the Fountain of Youth, would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes. - Marcel Proust (In Search of Lost Time Quotes)

The only true voyage, the only bath in the Fountain of Youth, would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes.[Le seul véritable voyage, le seul bain de Jouvence, ce ne serait pas d’aller vers de nouveaux paysages, mais d’avoir d’autres yeux.]
