I like going from one lighted room to another, such is my brain to me lighted rooms.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Every secret of a writer's soul, every experience of his life, every quality of his mind is written large in his works.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Life without illusion is a ghostly affair.
Virginia Woolf
Image
My own brain is to me the most unaccountable of machinery - always buzzing, humming, soaring roaring diving, and then buried in mud. And why? What's this passion for?
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
Image
to write a novel in the heart of London is next to an impossibility. I feel as if I were nailing a flag to the top of a mast in a raging gale.
Virginia Woolf
Image
The thing about Proust is his combination of the utmost sensibility with the utmost tenacity. He searches out these butterfly shades to the last grain. He is as tough as catgut and as evanescent as a butterfly's bloom.
Virginia Woolf
Image
. . . to walk alone in London is the greatest rest.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Life piles up so fast that I have no time to write out the equally fast rising mound of reflections.
Virginia Woolf
Image
He looked very old. He looked, James thought, getting his head now against the Lighthouse, now against the waste of waters running away into the open, like some old stone lying on the sand he looked as if he had become physically what was always at the back of both of their minds-that loneliness which was for both of them the truth about things.
