The only writer who's opinions of other writers matter is Borges.
Read Nabokov's work, not his views.

What's wrong with that?

Nabokov's opinions can be annoying, but less so than his works (I have only read Pale Fire and Lolita). Anyway, I enjoy reading all kinds of opinions.
Verlaine has great opinions too.

He also shit on Dostoyevsky. But at least he tried to popularize Hellens and his judgements are fun to read.

Huh, weird. I agree with his taste but I don't like his writing.
