“For my nymphet I needed a diminutive with a lyrical lilt to it. One of the most limpid and luminous letters is "L". The suffix "-ita" has a lot of Latin tenderness, and this I required too. Hence: Lolita. However, it should not be pronounced as you and most Americans pronounce it: Low-lee-ta, with a heavy, clammy "L" and a long "o". No, the first syllable should be as in "lollipop", the "L" liquid and delicate, the "lee" not too sharp. Spaniards and Italians pronounce it, of course, with exactly the necessary note of archness and caress. Another consideration was the welcome murmur of its source name, the fountain name: those roses and tears in "Dolores." My little girl's heartrending fate had to be taken into account together with the cuteness and limpidity. Dolores also provided her with another, plainer, more familiar and infantile diminutive: Dolly, which went nicely with the surname "Haze," where Irish mists blend with a German bunny—I mean, a small German hare.”

“Sería más fácil si los muertos no dejaran sus pertenencias atrás, como cascarones vacíos de nautilus extinguidos; sería más sencillo si cualquier huella de su existencia fuera borrada con ellos, olvidando incluso sus nombres como los de los faraones del Antiguo Egipto.”

“Но ако са те наранили толкова жестоко, бягството няма да разреши проблема ти - в крайна сметка, където и да избягаш, ще отнесеш сърцето и главата със себе си.”

“For the crown of our life as it closes
Is darkness, the fruit there of dust;
No thorns go as deep as the rose's,
And love is more cruel than lust.
Time turns the old days to derision,
Our loves into corpses or wives;
And marriage and death and division
Make barren our lives.”
― Dolores: Notre-Dame Des Sept Douleurs
Is darkness, the fruit there of dust;
No thorns go as deep as the rose's,
And love is more cruel than lust.
Time turns the old days to derision,
Our loves into corpses or wives;
And marriage and death and division
Make barren our lives.”
― Dolores: Notre-Dame Des Sept Douleurs
“В човешкия живот има случаи, когато минутите не съществуват, така че не можеш да ги преброиш.”

― Love in the Time of Cholera
