"Every face, every shop, bedroom window, public-house,..." - Quote by Virginia Woolf

“Once you begin to take yourself seriously as a leader or as a follower, as a modern or as a conservative, then you become a self-conscious, biting, and scratching little animal whose work is not of the slightest value or importance to anybody.”

“Twice Flush had done his utmost to kill his enemy; twice he had failed. And why had he failed, he asked himself? Because he loved Miss Barrett. Looking up at her from under his eyebrows as she lay, severe and silent on the sofa, he knew that he must love her for ever. Things are not simple but complex. If he bit Mr. Browning he bit her too. Hatred is not hatred; hatred is also love.”

“For the young people could not talk. And why should they? Shout, embrace, swing, be up at dawn.”

“Every man passes his life in the search after friendship.”

“I roamed the countryside searching for answers to things I did not understand.”

“Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end.”

“Beliefs have the power to create and the power to destroy. Human beings have the awesome ability to take any experience of their lives and create a meaning that disempowers them or one that can literally save their lives.”

“The meaning of life is that it stops.”

“Meaning makes a great many things endurable---per haps everything.”
