Way Adultery Rise Above

More From Vladimir Nabokov

Every issue of the paper presents an opportunity and a duty to say something courageous and true; to rise above the mediocre and conventional; to say something that will command the respect of the intelligent, the educated, the independent part of the community; to rise above fear of partisanship and fear of popular prejudice. i would rather have one article a day of this sort; and these ten or twenty lines might readily represent a whole day's hard work in the way of concentrated, intense thinking and revision, polish of style, weighing of words.

Self Judging Conscious
I was keenly conscious of the comrades-in-arms who had fallen with me. a bond surpassing by a hundredfold that which i had known in life bound me to them. i felt a sense of inexpressible relief and realized that i had feared, more than death, separation from them. i apprehended that excruciating war survivor's torment, the sense of isolation and self-betrayal experienced by those who had elected to cling yet to breath when their comrades had let loose their grip.
