EDITOR'S NOTE: Please address your response directly to Professor Couturier

The French publisher Gallimard wants me to trace a quotation from Nabokov
which one of their authors wants to use. I have not been able to identify
it. In French it reads: "L'exactitude est toujours morose." (exactitude is
always dull!, probably something else). Could anybody help me find the
exact words and the exact reference? Thank you.
