More quotes by Vladimir Nabokov, Lolita

"We all have such fateful objects -- it may be a recurrent landscape in one case, a number in another -- carefully chosen by the gods to attract events of specific significance for us: here shall John always stumble; there shall Jane's heart always break."
"It was love at first sight, at last sight, at ever and ever sight."
"Human life is but a series of footnotes to a vast obscure unfinished masterpiece"
"And the rest is rust and stardust."
