Famous quotes by Vladimir Nabokov:

"Revelation can be more perilous than Revolution."

"A work of art has no importance whatever to society. It is only important to the individual."

"Poetry involves the mysteries of the irrational perceived through rational words"

"The breaking of a wave cannot explain the whole sea."

"The pages are still blank, but there is a miraculous feeling of the words being there, written in invisible ink and clamoring to become visible."

"Literature and butterflies are the two sweetest passions known to man."

"Nothing revives the past so completely as a smell that was once associated with it."

"I think it is all a matter of love: the more you love a memory, the stronger and stranger it is"

"The cradle rocks above an abyss, and common sense tells us that our existence is but a brief crack of light between two eternities of darkness."

"I think like a genius, I write like a distinguished author, and I speak like a child."

"Nothing is more exhilarating than philistine vulgarity."

"The evolution of sense is, in a sense, the evolution of nonsense."

"No author has created with less emphasis such pathetic characters as Chekhov has."

"My loathings are simple: stupidity, oppression, crime, cruelty, soft music."

"Imagination, the supreme delight of the immortal and the immature, should be limited. In order to enjoy life, we should not enjoy it too much."

"I confess, I do not believe in time."

"The more gifted and talkative one's characters are, the greater the chances of their resembling the author in tone or tint of mind."

"Satire is a lesson, parody is a game."

"Poetry involves the mysteries of the irrational perceived through rational words."

"I have often noticed that after I had bestowed on the characters of my novels some treasured item of my past, it would pine away in the artificial world where I had so abruptly placed it."
