"There was a serenity about him always..." - Quote by Virginia Woolf

“Thoughts without words… Can that be?”

“Consolation for those moments when you can't tell whether you're the divinest genius or the greatest fool in the world.”

“To enjoy freedom we have to control ourselves.”

“Within you is the kingdom of serenity that can create all the prosperity you could ever want.”

“He who hears the rippling of rivers in these degenerate days will not utterly despair.”

“You cannot perceive beauty but with a serene mind.”

“When I was a kid I drew like Michelangelo. It took me years to learn to draw like a kid.”

“I am convinced that most people do not grow up...We marry and dare to have children and call that growing up. I think what we do is mostly grow old. We carry accumulation of years in our bodies, and on our faces, but generally our real selves, the children inside, are innocent and shy as magnolias.”

“I have always been regretting that I was not as wise as the day I was born.”
