More quotes by Sylvia Plath

Image
I want to taste and glory in each day, and never be afraid to experience pain and never shut myself up in a numb core of nonfeeling, or stop questioning and criticizing life and take the easy way out. To learn and think: to think and live to live and learn: this always, with new insight, new understanding, and new love.
Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath
Image
If I have a dry spell ... I wait and live harder, eyes, ears, and heart open, and when the productive time comes, it is that much richer.
Sylvia Plath
Image
Maybe forgetfulness, like a kind snow, should numb and cover them. But they were a part of me. They were my landscape.
Sylvia Plath
Image
I am too pure for you or anyone.
Sylvia Plath
Image
We should meet in another life, we should meet in air, me and you.
Sylvia Plath
Image
A million years of evolution, Eric said bitterly, and what are we? Animals.
Sylvia Plath
Image
I have taken a pill to kill The thin Papery feeling.
Sylvia Plath
Image
I felt the first man I slept with must be intelligent, so I could respect him.
Sylvia Plath
Image
It is so much safer not to feel, not to let the world touch me.
Sylvia Plath
Image
And I am aware of my heart: it opens and closes Its bowl of red blooms out of sheer love of me.
Sylvia Plath
Image
I had hoped, at my departure, I would feel sure and knowledgeable about everything that lay ahead -- after all, I had been analyzed. Instead, all I could see were question marks.
