Quotation of the Day for September 14, 2016



"A sense of security, of well-being, of summer warmth pervades my memory. That robust reality makes a ghost of the present. The mirror brims with brightness; a bumblebee has entered the room and bumps against the ceiling. Everything is as it should be, nothing will ever change, nobody will ever die."

- Vladimir Nabokov, in Speak, Memory: A Memoir.
