That's one of the pleasures of reading Proust and such writers; they pluck
things out the dark pond of our lives and give names to them, so that we
recognize them and can talk about them.

"Perhaps the immobility of the things that surround us is forced upon them by
our conviction that they are themselves and not anything else, by the immobility
of our conception of them."
(Proust, ALRDTP, Scott-Moncrieff, I think.)
