Quote by Vladimir Nabokov

"Life is a great surprise. I do not see why death should not be an even greater one."

"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."

"Loneliness is the cantor's voice of the soul."

"Power without control is just destruction."

"Power is not about control, it's about influence"

"The world doesn't need me to be the hero. It just needs me to be dangerous."

"The claws come out when I need them to."
