More quotes by Virginia Woolf
Humor is the first of the gifts to perish in a foreign tongue.
Virginia Woolf
Her life-that was the only chance she had-the short season between two silences.
Virginia Woolf
Besides, in this random miscellaneous company we may rub against some complete stranger who will, with luck, turn into the best friend we have in the world.
Virginia Woolf
If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.
Virginia Woolf
Finally, I would thank, had I not lost his name and address, a gentleman in America, who has generously and gratuitously corrected the punctuation, the botany, the entomology, the geography, and the chronology of previous works of mine and will, I hope, not spare his services on the present occasion.
Virginia Woolf
He smiled the most exquisite smile, veiled by memory, tinged by dreams.
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
The habit of writing for my eye is good practice. It loosens the ligaments.
Virginia Woolf
I feel all shadows of the universe multiplied deep inside my skin.
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
He was a thorough good sort a bit limited a bit thick in the head yes but a thorough good sort. Whatever he took up he did in the same matter-of-fact sensible way without a touch of imagination, without a sparkle of brilliancy, but with the inexplicable niceness of his type.
Virginia Woolf
He who robs us of our dreams robs us of our life.
Virginia Woolf
Up here my eyes are green leaves, unseeing.
Virginia Woolf
Just in case you ever foolishly forget I'm never not thinking of you
Virginia Woolf
Lord, how tired one gets of one's own writing.
Virginia Woolf
That complete statement which is literature.
Virginia Woolf
loveliness is infernally sad.
Virginia Woolf
I have a deeply hidden and inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life.
Virginia Woolf
The cold stream of visual impressions failed him now as if the eye were a cup that overflowed and let the rest run down its china walls unrecorded.
Virginia Woolf
One cannot bring children into a world like this. One cannot perpetuate suffering, or increase the breed of these lustful animals, who have no lasting emotions, but only whims and vanities, eddying them now this way, now that.
Virginia Woolf
