Virginia Woolf
Image
What a comfort is friendship in this world.
Virginia Woolf
Image
I am reading six books at once, the only way of reading since, as you will agree, one book is only a single unaccompanied note, and to get the full sound, one needs ten others at the same time.
Virginia Woolf
Image
To be caught happy in a world of misery was for an honest man the most despicable of crimes.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Life for both sexes is arduous, difficult, a perpetual struggle. More than anything... it calls for confidence in oneself...And how can we generate this imponderable quality most quickly? By thinking that other people are inferior to oneself.
Virginia Woolf
Image
Art is not a copy of the real world one of the damn things is enough.
Virginia Woolf
Image
To love makes one solitary.
Virginia Woolf
Image
I have a deeply hidden and inarticulate desire for something beyond the daily life.
