If anyone can identify that quotation (minus the zero) from a published book I will be mightily impressed. If it's the same book I'm thinking of, of course. I know, darlings, that you will miss me terribly while I'm away. So here are a few posts of Memories of Z's significant dates. Obviously, I have no memory of the day I was born.
