Answer 1

It sounds like Borges on Joyce's epiphanies, from a 1925 article. The quote certainly points to an epiphanic moment, but I cannot place it precisely at the moment.

Since although he spoke English Borges wrote mostly in Spanish, you'd have to deal with translations to locate this quotation.
