To whom can I expose the urgency of my own passion?…There is nobody—here among these grey arches, and moaning pigeons, and cheerful games and tradition and emulation, all so skilfully organised to prevent feeling alone.
Virginia Woolf
Image

Virginia Woolf
Image
Fiction is like a spider's web, attached ever so slightly perhaps, but still attached to life at all four corners. Often the attachment is scarcely perceptible.
Virginia Woolf

The artist after all is a solitary being.

Would there be trees if we didn't see them?
Virginia Woolf

One must love everything.

When you consider things like the stars, our affairs don't seem to matter very much, do they?
