Quotes About Memories

~ Gustave Flaubert

Me?utim, ako brojim godine, nije tome davno što sam se rodio, ali imam brojne uspomene koje osje?am kako me tište, kao što tište starce svi dani što su ih proživjeli; ?ini mi se katkada da sam trajao dugim stolje?ima, i da moje bi?e sadržava u sebi ostatke od tisu?u prošlih života.
~ Gustave Flaubert

Il me reste assez de papier sur ma table pour retracer à la hête tous les souvenirs de ma vie et toutes les circonstances qui ont influé sur cet enchaînement stupide et logique de jours et de nuits , de larmes et de rires, qu'on a coutume d'appeler l'existence d'un homme.
