"No free man needs a God; but was I free?How fully I felt nature glued to meAnd how my childish palate loved the tasteHalf-fish, half-honey, of that golden paste!My picture book was at an early ageThe painted parchment papering our cage:Mauve rings around the moon; blood-orange sun;Twinned Iris; and that rare phenomenonThe iridule - when, beautiful and strange,In a bright sky above a mountain rangeOne opal cloudlet in an oval formReflects the rainbow of a thunderstormWhich in a distant valley has been staged -For we are most artistically caged."

Vladimir Nabokov, American Novelist

Freedom, Nature, Childhood, Life

"Is it 'Stockholm syndrome' when your God has never once misguided your steps? I think not!

"Can anybody be given a great degree of creativity? No. They can be given the equipment to develop it-if they have it in them in the first place."

Creativity

"All my musical foundations go back to the age of 3. My family tell me that I used to listen to the old crystal set, then go to the piano and pick out the tune that I just heard."

Age

Business

"My affiliation with England is borne out by the fact that I do come back for periodic visits."

Fact

Time
