More quotes by Virginia Woolf
How lovely goodness is in those who, stepping lightly, go smiling through the world.
Virginia Woolf
It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality.
Virginia Woolf
Facts must be manipulated some must be brightened others shaded yet, in the process, they must never lose their integrity.
Virginia Woolf
I got out this diary, & read as one always does read one's own writing, with a kind of guilty intensity.
Virginia Woolf
And all the lives we ever lived and all the lives to be are full of trees and changing leaves.
Virginia Woolf
She felt... how life, from being made up of little separate incidents which one lived one by one, became curled and whole like a wave which bore one up with it and threw one down with it, there, with a dash on the beach.
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
You cannot lecture on really pure poetry any more than you can talk about the ingredients of pure water-it is adulterated, methylated, sanded poetry that makes the best lectures.
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
So fine was the morning except for a streak of wind here and there that the sea and sky looked all one fabric, as if sails were stuck high up in the sky, or the clouds had dropped down into the sea.
Virginia Woolf
Blame it or praise it, there is no denying the wild horse in us.
Virginia Woolf
I will dream today for I must unscrew my head somehow.
Virginia Woolf
Peace was the third emotion. Love. Hate. Peace. Three emotions made the ply of human life.
Virginia Woolf
That great Cathedral space which was childhood.
Virginia Woolf
loveliness is infernally sad.
Virginia Woolf
To want and not to have, sent all up her body a hardness, a hollowness, a strain. And then to want and not to have- to want and want- how that wrung the heart, and wrung it again and again!
Virginia Woolf
All great writers have, of course, an atmosphere in which they seem most at their ease and at their best a mood of the general mind which they interpret and indeed almost discover, so that we come to read them rather for that than for any story or character or scene of seperate excellence.
Virginia Woolf
There was a serenity about him always that had the look of innocence, when, technically, the word was no longer applicable.
Virginia Woolf
The word-coining genius, as if thought plunged into a sea of words and came up dripping.
Virginia Woolf
