"Marvelous are the innocent...." - Quote by Virginia Woolf

“A whole lifetime was too short to bring out, the full flavour; to extract every ounce of pleasure, every shade of meaning.”

“Yet, she said to herself, form the dawn of time odes have been sung to love; wreaths heaped and roses; and if you asked nine people out of ten they would say they wanted nothing but this--love; while the women, judging from her own experience, would all the time be feeling, This is not what we want; there is nothing more tedious, puerile, and inhumane than this; yet it is also beautiful and necessary.”

“Peace was the third emotion. Love. Hate. Peace. Three emotions made the ply of human life.”

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

“The soul is healed by being with children.”

“I doubt not then but innocence shall makeFalse accusation blush, and tyrannyTremble at patience.”

“This is an evening of wonders, indeed!”

“If you enjoy living, it is not difficult to keep the sense of wonder.”

“Because a fact seems strange to you, you conclude that it is not one. ... All science, however, commences by being strange. Science is successive. It goes from one wonder to another. It mounts by a ladder. The science of to-day would seem extravagant to the science of a former time. Ptolemy would believe Newton mad.”
