No sooner have you feasted on beauty with your eyes than you... - Virginia Woolf
"No sooner have you feasted on beauty with your eyes than your mind tells you that beauty is vain and beauty passes"
"No sooner have you feasted on beauty with your eyes than your mind tells you that beauty is vain and beauty passes"
"As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world."

"If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people."
"Second hand books are wild books, homeless books; they have come together in vast flocks of variegated feather, and have a charm which the domesticated volumes of the library lack."
"Once conform, once do what other people do because they do it, and a lethargy steals over all the finer nerves and faculties of the soul. She becomes all outer show and inward emptiness; dull, callous, and indifferent."
