Growing up is losing some illusions, in order to acquire oth... - Virginia Woolf

"Never let anybody guess that you have a mind of your own. Above all be pure"

"Why are women... so much more interesting to men than men are to women?"

"You cannot find peace by avoiding life."

"I would venture to guess that Anon, who wrote so many poems without signing them, was often a woman."

"No sooner have you feasted on beauty with your eyes than your mind tells you that beauty is vain and beauty passes"
