More quotes by Virginia Woolf
But nothing is so strange when one is in love (and what was this except being in love?) as the complete indifference of other people.
Virginia Woolf
Why are women... so much more interesting to men than men are to women?
Virginia Woolf
He smiled the most exquisite smile, veiled by memory, tinged by dreams.
Virginia Woolf
Until we can comprehend the beguiling beauty of a single flower, we are woefully unable to grasp the meaning and potential of life itself.
Virginia Woolf
I was so pleased and excited by your letter that I trotted about all day like a puppy with a bone.
Virginia Woolf
The world wavered and quivered and threatened to burst into flames.
Virginia Woolf
Then may I tell you that the very next words I read were these – ‘Chloe liked Olivia…’ Do not start. Do not blush. Let us admit in the privacy of our own society that these things sometimes happen. Sometimes women do like women.
Virginia Woolf
For books continue each other, in spite of our habit of judging them separately.
Virginia Woolf
The very stone one kicks with one's boot will outlast Shakespeare.
Virginia Woolf
And again she felt alone in the presence of her old antagonist, life.
Virginia Woolf
I am rooted, but I flow.
Virginia Woolf
Oh, but she never wanted James to grow a day older or Cam either. These two she would have liked to keep for ever just as the way they were, demons of wickedness, angels of delight, never to see them grow up into long-legged monsters.
Virginia Woolf
No one would think of bringing a dog into church. For though a dog is all very well on a gravel path, and shows no disrespect to flowers, the way he wanders down an aisle, looking, lifting a paw, and approaching a pillar with a purpose that makes the blood run cold with horror ... a dog destroys the service completely.
Virginia Woolf
What a labour writing is ... making one sentence do the work of a page that's what I call hard work.
Virginia Woolf
I like books whose virtue is all drawn together in a page or two. I like sentences that don't budge though armies cross them.
Virginia Woolf
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
Virginia Woolf
Like all very handsome men who die tragically, he left not so much a character behind him as a legend. Youth and death shed a halo through which it is difficult to see a real face.
Virginia Woolf
For women live much more in the past...they attach themselves to places.
Virginia Woolf
Still, the sun was hot. Still, one got over things. Still, life had a way of adding day to day
Virginia Woolf
Romantic Love is only an Illusion. A story one makes up in One's Mind about Another Person.
Virginia Woolf
