More quotes by Virginia Woolf
The world is crammed with delightful things
Virginia Woolf
As a creator of character his peculiarity is that he creates wherever his eyes rest ... With such a power at his command Dickens made his books blaze up, not by tightening the plot or sharpening the wit, but by throwing another handful of people upon the fire.
Virginia Woolf
By the truth we are undone. Life is a dream. 'Tis the waking that kills us. He who robs us of our dreams robs us of our life.
Virginia Woolf
Altogether, the task of estimating the length of human life is beyond our capacity, for directly we say that it is ages long, we are reminded that it is briefer than the fall of a rose leaf to the ground.
Virginia Woolf
For this moment, this one moment, we are together. I press you to me. Come, pain, feed on me. Bury your fangs in my flesh. Tear me asunder. I sob, I sob.
Virginia Woolf
To be nothing - is that not, after all, the most satisfactory fact in the whole world?
Virginia Woolf
For women live much more in the past...they attach themselves to places.
Virginia Woolf
and even a tea party means apprehension, breakage
Virginia Woolf
Literature is strewn with the wreckage of men who have minded beyond reason the opinions of others.
Virginia Woolf
How far we are going to read a poet when we can read about a poet is a problem to lay before biographers.
Virginia Woolf
Without self awareness we are as babies in the cradles.
Virginia Woolf
Surely it was time someone invented a new plot, or that the author came out from the bushes.
Virginia Woolf
In solitude we give passionate attention to our lives, to our memories, to the details around us.
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
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.
Virginia Woolf
Incessant company is as bad as solitary confinement.
Virginia Woolf
The sigh of all the seas breaking in measure round the isles soothed them the night wrapped them nothing broke their sleep, until, the birds beginning and the dawn weaving their thin voices in to its whiteness
Virginia Woolf
That complete statement which is literature.
Virginia Woolf
The depths of the sea are only water after all.
Virginia Woolf
No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.
Virginia Woolf
