Virginia Woolf

The world is a very strange place.

I am always in a hurry.

It is a great pity that people do not know how to die.

I am going to write a book that will make people cry.

The world is full of people who are always telling you what not to do.

I am always in a state of confusion.

The only way to be wise is to be a little foolish.

I am going to write a book that will make people angry.

The world is a very boring place.

I am always in a state of despair.

For we are not whole. We are not complete. We are not one and indivisible. We are many.

The world is a machine. It is a machine that makes us into ourselves.

I feel that I have had a good time, and that I have been happy. But I have also been unhappy. And I have been afraid. And I have been lonely. And I have been bored. And I have been tired. And I have been angry. And I have been sad. And I have been glad. And I have been all of these things at once.

I see you, I see you, I see you. I see you as you are. I see you as you will be. I see you as you have been. I see you as you are not. I see you as you are not yet. I see you as you are no longer. I see you as you are always. I see you as you are never. I see you as you are.

The only way to deal with life is to throw yourself into it, to live it as fully as possible, to experience everything, to feel everything, to be everything.

I am made of the same stuff as the universe. I am made of stars and dust and light and darkness. I am made of everything and nothing. I am made of all that is and all that is not.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and it is also in the eye of the artist.

The great revelation perhaps never comes. Instead there are little daily miracles, illuminations, matches struck unexpectedly in the dark.

What is the meaning of life? That was all-a simple question; one that tended to close in on one with years. The great revelation perhaps never comes. Instead there are little daily miracles, illuminations, matches struck unexpectedly in the dark; a taper burning from a window when one thought the house empty.

I have a profound and passionate love of life.
