Oscar Wilde
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”
Oscar Wilde

Raymond Carver
“Woke up this morning with a terrific urge to lie in bed all day and read.”
Raymond Carver

Virginia Woolf
“For now she need not think of anybody. She could be herself, by herself. And that was what now she often felt the need of - to think; well not even to think. To be silent; to be alone. All the being and the doing, expansive, glittering, vocal, evaporated; and one shrunk, with a sense of solemnity, to being oneself, a wedge-shaped core of darkness, something invisible to others... and this self having shed its attachments was free for the strangest adventures.”
Virginia Woolf, To the Lighthouse

Phyllis Diller
“Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.”
Phyllis Diller
