More quotes by Virginia Woolf
I have a feeling I shall go mad. I cannot go on longer in these terrible times. I shan't recover this time. I hear voices and cannot concentrate on my work. I have fought against it but cannot fight any longer.
Virginia Woolf
But what a little I can get down into my pen of what is so vivid to my eyes, and not only to my eyes also to some nervous fibre, or fanlike membrane in my species.
Virginia Woolf
Art is not a copy of the real world one of the damn things is enough.
Virginia Woolf
Are we so made that we have to take death in small doses daily or we could not go on with the business of living?
Virginia Woolf
For the young people could not talk. And why should they? Shout, embrace, swing, be up at dawn.
Virginia Woolf
Friendships, even the best of them, are frail things. One drifts apart.
Virginia Woolf
It seems as if an age of genius must be succeeded by an age of endeavour riot and extravagance by cleanliness and hard work.
Virginia Woolf
A sort of transaction went on between them, in which she was on one side, and life was on another, and she was always trying to get the better of it, as it was of her.
Virginia Woolf
In marriage a little licence, a little independence there must be between people living together day in and day out in the same house.
Virginia Woolf
Submit to me. So she said nothing, but looked doggedly and sadly at the shore, wrapped in its mantle of peace as if the people there had fallen alseep, she thought were free like smoke, were free to come and go like ghosts. They have no suffering there, she thought.
Virginia Woolf
I like people to be unhappy because I like them to have souls.
Virginia Woolf
When she read just now to James, 'and there were numbers of soldiers with kettledrums and trumpets,' and his eyes darkened, she thought, why should they grow up, and lose all that?
Virginia Woolf
To make ideas effective, we must be able to fire them off. We must put them into action.
Virginia Woolf
One ought to sink to the bottom of the sea, probably, and live alone with one's words.
Virginia Woolf
Let us record the atoms as they fall upon the mind in the order in which they fall.
Virginia Woolf
Why does Samuel Butler say, 'Wise men never say what they think of women'? Wise men never say anything else apparently.
Virginia Woolf
I meant to write about death, only life came breaking in as usual
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
It is impossible for human beings, constituted as they are, both to fight and to have ideals.
Virginia Woolf
First a warning, musical then the hour, irrevocable. The leaden circles dissolved in the air.
Virginia Woolf
