More quotes by Virginia Woolf
Talents of the novelist: ... observation of character, analysis of emotion, people's feelings, personal relations.
Virginia Woolf
To love makes one solitary.
Virginia Woolf
It is fatal to be a man or woman pure and simple: one must be a woman manly, or a man womanly.
Virginia Woolf
Would there be trees if we didn't see them?
Virginia Woolf
...she always had the feeling that it was very, very dangerous to live even one day.
Virginia Woolf
At one and the same time, therefore, society is everything and society is nothing. Society is the most powerful concoction in the world and society has no existence whatsoever
Virginia Woolf
Just in case you ever foolishly forget I'm never not thinking of you
Virginia Woolf
If Shakespeare had never existed, he asked, would the world have differed much from what it is today? Does the progress of civilization depend upon great men? Is the lot of the average human being better now that in the time of the Pharaohs?
Virginia Woolf
As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.
Virginia Woolf
Tom's great yellow bronze mask all draped upon an iron framework. An inhibited, nerve-drawn dropped face - as if hung on a scaffold of heavy private brooding and thought.
Virginia Woolf
Life without illusion is a ghostly affair.
Virginia Woolf
She thought there were no Gods no one was to blame and so she evolved this atheist's religion of doing good for the sake of goodness.
Virginia Woolf
Be truthful, and the result is bound to be amazingly interesting.
Virginia Woolf
It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality.
Virginia Woolf
... why do people who live in the country always give themselves such airs?
Virginia Woolf
I cannot remember my past, my nose, or the colour of my eyes, or what my general opinion of myself is. Only in moments of emergency, at a crossing, at a kerb, the wish to preserve my body springs out and seizes me and stops me , here, before this omnibus. We insist, it seems, on living. Then again, indifference descends.
Virginia Woolf
I ransack public libraries & find them full of sunk treasure.
Virginia Woolf
Up here my eyes are green leaves, unseeing.
Virginia Woolf
Distorted realities have always been my cup of tea.
Virginia Woolf
What a lark! What a plunge!
Virginia Woolf
