"To Yuri the room was more than a place to work in, more than a study. At this time of devouring activity, when the pile of notebooks on his desk was too small to hold all his plans and when the shapes of his projected books were all round him, like unfinished pictures standing with their faces to the walls in a painter's studio, his living-room was to him a banquet room of the spirit, a lumber room of unreason, a store room of discoveries."
-- Boris Pasternak, Dr. Zhivago (1958), p. 475
