All extremes are dangerous.

Virginia Woolf

All extremes of feeling are allied with madness.

Anyone who’s worth anything reads just what he likes, as the mood takes him, and with extravagant enthusiasm.

Art is not a copy of the real world; one of the damn things is enough.

Virginia Woolf

As a woman I have no country. As a woman my country is the whole world.

As for my next book, I am going to hold myself from writing it till I have it impending in me: grown heavy in my mind like a ripe pear; pendant, gravid, asking to be cut or it will fall.

Virginia Woolf

Be truthful, and the result is bound to be amazingly interesting.
