#memoir
“A sense of security, of well-being, of summer warmth pervades my memory. The robust reality makes a ghost of the present. The mirror brims with brightness; a bumblbee has entered the room and bumps into the ceiling. Everything is as it should be, nothing will ever change, nobody will ever die.”
- from “Speak, Memory” by Vladimir Nabokov

“I was learning that who you are and what you do and make and wear and say can be a contribution to people around you, that many of the most valuable gifts are not direct or material or measurable. That even how you live your life can be a gift to others.”
- Rebecca Solnit, Recollections of My Non-Existence
