"There are no teachers, saints, prophets, good..." - Quote by Virginia Woolf

“No, she thought, one could say nothing to nobody. The urgency of the moment always missed its mark. Words fluttered sideways and struck the object inches too low.”

“We are cut, we are fallen. We are become part of that unfeeling universe that sleeps when we are at our quickest and burns red when we lie asleep.”

“There was a serenity about him always that had the look of innocence, when, technically, the word was no longer applicable.”

“No writing has any real value which is not the expression of genuine thought and feeling.”

“In the domain of art there is no light without heat.”

“Summoning artists to participate In the august occasions of the state Seems something artists ought to celebrate. Today is for my cause a day of days.”

“The productions of all arts are kinds of poetry and their craftsmen are all poets.”

“No artist tolerates reality.”

“There ought to be an absolute dictatorship... a dictatorship of painters... a dictatorship of one painter... to suppress all those who have betrayed us.”
