Iris

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

“The silence depressed me. It wasn't the silence of silence. It was my own silence.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

“To be fond of dancing was a certain step towards falling in love”
― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice

“If you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar
