More quotes by Virginia Woolf
How lovely goodness is in those who, stepping lightly, go smiling through the world.
Virginia Woolf
I am in the mood to dissolve in the sky.
Virginia Woolf
For women live much more in the past...they attach themselves to places.
Virginia Woolf
Books should stand on their own feet ... If they need shoring up by a preface here, an introduction there, they have no more right to exist than a table that needs a wad of paper under one leg in order to stand steady.
Virginia Woolf
You cannot cross the narrow bridge of art carrying all its tools in your hands. Some you must leave behind.
Virginia Woolf
writing is the profound pleasure and being read the superficial.
Virginia Woolf
All this pitting of sex against sex, of quality against quality all this claiming of superiority and imputing of inferiority belong to the private-school stage of human existence where there are sides, and it is necessary for one side to beat another side.
Virginia Woolf
Thoughts without words… Can that be?
Virginia Woolf
I have a feeling I shall go mad. I cannot go on longer in these terrible times. I shan't recover this time. I hear voices and cannot concentrate on my work. I have fought against it but cannot fight any longer.
Virginia Woolf
On or about December 1910, human character changed.
Virginia Woolf
Do not move, do not go. Sink within this moment. Hold it for ever.
Virginia Woolf
The compensation of growing old ... was simply this that the passion remains as strong as ever, but one has gained -- at last! -- the power which adds the supreme flavour to existence -- the power of taking hold of experience, of turning it round, slowly, in the light.
Virginia Woolf
You cannot lecture on really pure poetry any more than you can talk about the ingredients of pure water-it is adulterated, methylated, sanded poetry that makes the best lectures.
Virginia Woolf
Happiness is to have a little string onto which things will attach themselves.
Virginia Woolf
The immense success of our life is, I think, that our treasure is hid away or rather in such common things that nothing can touch it.
Virginia Woolf
Her life was a tissue of vanity and deceit.
Virginia Woolf
Now this is very profound, what rhythm is, and goes far deeper than words. A sight, an emotion, creates this wave in the mind, long before it makes words to fit it.
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
There was no freedom in life, and certainly there was none in death.
Virginia Woolf
old emotions like old families have intermarried and have many connections.
Virginia Woolf
