Virginia Woolf
I have sought happiness through many ages and not found it.
Virginia Woolf
She fell into a deep pool of sticky water, which eventually closed over her head. She saw nothing and heard nothing but a faint booming sound, which was the sound of the sea rolling over her head. While all her tormentors thought that she was dead, she was not dead, but curled up at the bottom of the sea.
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
Our apparitions, the things you know us by, are simply childish. Beneath it is all dark, it is all spreading, it is unfathomably deep but now and again we rise to the surface and that is what you see us by.
Virginia Woolf
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
Virginia Woolf
What a comfort is friendship in this world.
Virginia Woolf
Oh, I am in love with life!
Virginia Woolf
A woman must have money and a room of her own if she is to write fiction.
Virginia Woolf
It was the intimacy, a sort of spiritual suppleness, when mind prints upon mind indelibly.
Virginia Woolf
