Virginia Woolf
“Cała sytuacja, której się przyglądam - tutaj, w sali wypełnionej kobietami, które po raz pierwszy w historii wykonują nie wiem nawet jak wiele różnych zawodów - jest bardzo interesująca i ma wielkie znaczenie. Zdobyłyście sobie własne pokoje w domu dotychczas zajętym wyłącznie przez mężczyzn. Możecie, choć nie bez wielkiego trudu i wysiłku, zapłacić za czynsz. Zarabiacie swoje pięćset funtów rocznie. Ale ta wolność to dopiero początek: pokój wprawdzie macie własny, ale pusty. Trzeba go umeblować, trzeba go udekorować; trzeba go z kimś dzielić. Jak macie zamiar go umeblować? Z kim chcecie go dzielić i na jakich warunkach? Oto, jak sądzę, pytania najwyższej wagi i znaczenia. Po raz pierwszy w historii możecie je zadać; po raz pierwszy w historii możecie same zadecydować, jaka będzie na nie odpowiedź. Chętnie bym została, by przedyskutować te pytania i odpowiedzi - ale nie dziś. Mój czas upłynął, tu muszę przerwać.”
Virginia Woolf, Eseje wybrane

Christopher Isherwood
“I think', said Sally, 'it must be marvellous to be a novelist. You're frightfully dreamy and unpractical and unbusinesslike, and people imagine they can fairly swindle you as much as they want - and then you sit down and write a book about them which fairly shows them what swine they all are, and it's the most terrific success and you make pots of money.”
Christopher Isherwood, Goodbye to Berlin

James Baldwin
“Love him,’ said Jacques, with vehemence, ‘love him and let him love you. Do you think anything else under heaven really matters? And how long, at the best, can it last, since you are both men and still have everywhere to go? Only five minutes, I assure you, only five minutes, and most of that, helas! in the dark. And if you think of them as dirty, then they will be dirty— they will be dirty because you will be giving nothing, you will be despising your flesh and his. But you can make your time together anything but dirty, you can give each other something which will make both of you better—forever—if you will not be ashamed, if you will only not play it safe.’ He paused, watching me, and then looked down to his cognac. ‘You play it safe long enough,’ he said, in a different tone, ‘and you’ll end up trapped in your own dirty body, forever and forever and forever—like me.”
James Baldwin, Giovanni’s Room

Wilkie Collins
“So the ghostly figure which has haunted these pages, as it haunted my life, goes down into the impenetrable gloom. Like a shadow she first came to me in the loneliness of the night. Like a shadow she passes away in the loneliness of the dead”
Wilkie Collins, The Woman in White

Wilkie Collins
“The girl ginned again, more cheerfully than ever. 'Bless you, miss! Baxter's the keeper; and when he finds strange dogs hunting about, he takes and shoots 'em. It's keeper's dooty, miss. I think that dog will die. Here's where he's been shot, ain't it? That's Baxter's doings, that is. Baxter's doings, miss, and Baxter's dooty.'
It was almost wicked enough to wish that Baxter had shot the housemaid instead of the dog.”
Wilkie Collins, The Woman in White
