This gossip, snark, and psycho analysis on the
Nabokov forum, of all places? And
"obsessive-compulsive disorder"? Really......

Does anyone here remember Charlie Chaplin? The
artist and the grandeur and the conscience.......

The raison d'etre of his work was not only
aesthetic bliss but justice; and for justice he
sacrificed both wealth and home.
