Famous quotes containing the word nabokov:

    “I had been living in Berlin since 1922, thus synchronously with the young man of the book; but neither this fact, nor my sharing some of his interests, such as literature and lepidoptera, should make one say “aha” and identify the designer with the design.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “After a month or so I get used to the book’s final stage, to its having been weaned from my brain. I now regard it with a kind of amused tenderness as a man regards not his son, but the young wife of his son.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)

    “Complacency is a state of mind that exists only in retrospective: it has to be shattered before being ascertained.”
    —Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
