Mental fight means thinking against the current, not with it. It is our business to puncture gas bags and discover seeds of truth.
Virginia WoolfWith her foot on the threshold she waited a moment longer in a scene which was vanishing even as she looked, and then, as she moved and took Minta's arm and left the room, it changed, it shaped itself differently; it had become, she knew, giving one last look at it over her shoulder, already the past.
Virginia WoolfShe felt... how life, from being made up of little separate incidents which one lived one by one, became curled and whole like a wave which bore one up with it and threw one down with it, there, with a dash on the beach.
Virginia WoolfI was in a queer mood, thinking myself very old: but now I am a woman again - as I always am when I write.
