More quotes by Virginia Woolf
... the public and the private worlds are inseparably connected ... the tyrannies and servilities of the one are the tyrannies and servilities of the other.
Virginia Woolf
Melancholy were the sounds on a winter's night.
Virginia Woolf
Language is wine upon the lips.
Virginia Woolf
A million candles burnt in him without his being at the trouble of lighting a single one
Virginia Woolf
I mean it's the writing, not the being read, that excites me.
Virginia Woolf
You have a touch in letter writing that is beyond me. Something unexpected, like coming round a corner in a rose garden and finding it still daylight.
Virginia Woolf
Those comfortably padded lunatic asylums which are known, euphemistically, as the stately homes of England.
Virginia Woolf
For if Chloe likes Olivia and Mary Carmichael knows how to express it she will light a torch in that vast chamber where nobody has yet been.
Virginia Woolf
They lack suggestive power. And when a book lacks suggestive power, however hard it hits the surface of the mind it cannot penetrate within.
Virginia Woolf
You cannot cross the narrow bridge of art carrying all its tools in your hands. Some you must leave behind.
Virginia Woolf
But the close withdrew: the hand softened. It was over-- the moment.
Virginia Woolf
You send a boy to school in order to make friends - the right sort.
Virginia Woolf
Communication is truth communication is happiness. To share is our duty to go down boldly and bring to light those hidden thoughts which are the most diseased to conceal nothing to pretend nothing if we are ignorant to say so if we love our friends to let them know it.
Virginia Woolf
To want and not to have, sent all up her body a hardness, a hollowness, a strain. And then to want and not to have- to want and want- how that wrung the heart, and wrung it again and again!
Virginia Woolf
On or about December 1910, human character changed.
Virginia Woolf
I see you everywhere, in the stars, in the river, to me you're everything that exists the reality of everything.
Virginia Woolf
I will not be famous, great. I will go on adventuring, changing, opening my mind and my eyes, refusing to be stamped and stereotyped. The thing is to free one's self: to let it find its dimensions, not be impeded.
Virginia Woolf
People only become writers if they can't find the one book they've always wanted to read.
Virginia Woolf
Use words that soak up life.
Virginia Woolf
I really don't advise a woman who wants to have things her own way to get married
Virginia Woolf
