From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2016-09-14:

"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.
