Happiness Quote by Vladimir Nabokov

“I swear I am happy. I have realized that the only happiness in this world is to observe, to spy, to watch, to scrutinize oneself and others, to be nothing but a big, slightly vitreous, somewhat bloodshot, unblinking eye. I swear that this is happiness.” quote by Vladimir Nabokov — Download Open image
