More quotes by Virginia Woolf
Beauty was not everything. Beauty had this penalty — it came too readily, came too completely. It stilled life — froze it.
Virginia Woolf
Style is a very simple matter it is all rhythm. Once you get that, you can't use the wrong words.
Virginia Woolf
Biography is to give a man some kind of shape after his death.
Virginia Woolf
Against you I will fling myself, unvanquished and unyielding, O Death!
Virginia Woolf
The weather varies between heavy fog and pale sunshine My thoughts follow the exact same process.
Virginia Woolf
Moments like this are buds on the tree of life. Flowers of darkness they are.
Virginia Woolf
The eyes of others our prisons their thoughts our cages.
Virginia Woolf
Like and like and like--but what is the thing that lies beneath the semblance of the thing?
Virginia Woolf
The interest in life does not lie in what people do, nor even in their relations to each other, but largely in the power to communicate with a third party, antagonistic, enigmatic, yet perhaps persuadable, which one may call life in general.
Virginia Woolf
Conversation, fastidious goddess, loves blood better than brick, and feasts most subtly on the human will.
Virginia Woolf
Lock up your libraries if you like but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.
Virginia Woolf
Women alone stir my imagination.
Virginia Woolf
loveliness is infernally sad.
Virginia Woolf
Am I too fast, too facile? I do not know. I do not know myself sometimes, or how to measure and name and count out the grains that make me what I am.
Virginia Woolf
Better was it to go unknown and leave behind you an arch, then to burn like a meteor and leave no dust.
Virginia Woolf
But I beneath a rougher sea, And whelmed in deeper gulfs than he.
Virginia Woolf
I can only note that the past is beautiful because one never realises an emotion at the time. It expands later, and thus we don't have complete emotions about the present, only about the past.
Virginia Woolf
It is only by putting it into words that I make it whole. This wholeness means that it has lost its power to hurt me it gives me, perhaps because by doing so I take away the pain, a great delight to put the severed parts together
Virginia Woolf
If we didn't live venturously, plucking the wild goat by the beard, and trembling over precipices, we should never be depressed, I've no doubt but already should be faded, fatalistic and aged.
Virginia Woolf
We are nauseated by the sight of trivial personalities decomposing in the eternity of print.
Virginia Woolf
