"I feel all shadows of the universe..." - Quote by Virginia Woolf

“For women live much more in the past...they attach themselves to places.”

“to teach without zest is a crime.”

“I ride rough waters, and shall sink with no one to save me.”

“I don't have depressed moods. I'm happy, just very, very happy.”

“The acquisition of knowledge is always of use to the intellect, because it may thus drive out useless things and retain the good. For nothing can be loved or hated unless it is first known.”

“I don’t write this letter to put bitterness into your heart, but to pluck it out of mine. For my own sake I must forgive you.”

“I saw battle-corpses, myriads of them,And the white skeletons of young men-I saw them;I saw the debris and debris of all the dead soldiers of the war;But I saw they were not as was thought;They themselves were fully at rest-they suffer'd not;The living remain'd and suffer'd-the mother suffer'd,And the wife and the child, and the musing comrade suffer'd,And the armies that remain'd suffer'd.”

“I now see that sorrow, being the supreme emotion of which man is capable, is at once the type and test of all great art.”

“It takes just such painful and terrible things to occur for the great emancipation to take place.”
