Virginia Woolf, a prominent English writer of the 20th century, is known for her profound words that often delve into the ideas of consciousness and identity, inspiring readers to think and believe. I thoroughly enjoy reading quotes and snippets written by her, and I hope you would, too! :)


“Lock up your libraries if you like; but there is no gate, no lock, no bolt that you can set upon the freedom of my mind.”


“If you do not tell the truth about yourself you cannot tell it about other people.”


“As a woman I have no country. As a woman I want no country. As a woman, my country is the whole world.”






“The eyes of others our prisons; their thoughts our cages.”


“No need to hurry. No need to sparkle. No need to be anybody but oneself.”


“There was a star riding through clouds one night, & I said to the star, 'Consume me'.”


“I am rooted, but I flow.”


“So long as you write what you wish to write, that is all that matters; and whether it matters for ages or only for hours, nobody can say.”


“To look life in the face, always, to look life in the face, and to know it for what it is...at last, to love it for what it is, and then, to put it away...”
