At Cornell University, my professor of European literature, Vladimir Nabokov, changed the way I read and the way I write. Words could paint pictures, I learned from him. Choosing the right word, and the right word order, he illustrated, could make an enormous difference in conveying an image or an idea.

To love our neighbor as ourselves is such a truth...My best friend and I went to sleep-away camp...If you're doing this because you feel like you have...We're still living with the old paradigm of age...A king without power is an absurdity...I believe that God put us in this jolly world to be happy...
