“I detest the masculine point of view. I am bored by his heroism, virtue, and honour. I think the best these men can do is not talk about themselves anymore.”
― Virginia Woolf, The Pargiters

“And it's inside myself that I must create someone who will understand.”
― Clarice Lispector

“For the spell is older than experience. For the tale is older than the record.”
― Marina Tsvetaeva

“I want to sleep with you, fall asleep and sleep. That magnificent folk word, how deep, how true, how unequivocal, how exactly what it says. Just – sleep. And nothing more. No, another thing: and know right into the deepest sleep that it is you. And more: how your heart sounds. And – kiss your heart.”
― Marina Tsvetaeva, Letters: Summer 1926
