More quotes by Sylvia Plath
I can't think logically about who I am or where I am going. I have been very ecstatic, horribly depressed, shocked, elated, enlightened, and enervated.
Sylvia Plath
It is so much safer not to feel, not to let the world touch me.
Sylvia Plath
Is there no way out of the mind?
Sylvia Plath
I couldn’t see the point of getting up. I had nothing to look forward to.
Sylvia Plath
Whenever I'm sad I'm going to die, or so nervous I can't sleep, or in love with somebody I won't be seeing for a week, I slump down just so far and then I say: 'I'll go take a hot bath.
Sylvia Plath
I do not know who I am tonight.
Sylvia Plath
I hadn't, at the last moment, felt like washing off the two diagonal lines of dried blood that marked my cheeks. They seemed touching, and rather spectacular, and I thought I would carry them around with me, like the relic of a dead lover, till they wore off of their own accord.
Sylvia Plath
I may have made a straight A in physics, but I was panic-struck. Physics made me sick the whole time I learned it.
Sylvia Plath
I am too pure for you or anyone.
Sylvia Plath
I am myself. That is not enough.
Sylvia Plath
Let me sit in a flowerpot, The spiders won't notice. My heart is a stopped geranium.
Sylvia Plath
No, I won't try to escape myself by losing myself in artificial chatter 'Did you have a nice vacation?' 'Oh, yes, and you?' I'll stay here and try to pin that loneliness down.
Sylvia Plath
Why honey, don't you want to get dressed? My mother took care never to tell me to do anything. She would only reason with me sweetly, like one intelligent, mature person with another. It's almost three in the afternoon. I'm writing a novel, I said. I haven't got time to change into this and change into that.
Sylvia Plath
The silence drew off, baring the pebbles and shells and all the tatty wreckage of my life.
Sylvia Plath
I lay in that tub on the seventeenth floor of this hotel for-women-only, high up over the jazz and push of New York, for near unto an hour, and I felt myself growing pure again. I don't believe in baptism or the waters of Jordan or anything like that, but I guess I feel about a hot bath the way those religious people feel about holy water.
Sylvia Plath
I need some older, wiser being to cry to. I talk to God, but the sky is empty, and Orion walks by and doesn't speak.
Sylvia Plath
Is anyone anywhere happy?
Sylvia Plath
What is my life for and what am I going to do with it? I don't know and I'm afraid.
Sylvia Plath
We know a thing by its opposite corollary hot by having experienced cold good by having decided what is bad love by hate.
Sylvia Plath
I was my own woman. The next step was to find the proper sort of man.
Sylvia Plath
