Vladimir Nabokov
“One opal cloudlet in an oval form reflects the rainbow of a thunderstorm which in a distant valley has been staged for we are most artistically caged.”
Vladimir Nabokov

J.A. Baker
“Detailed landscapes are tedious. One part of England is superficially so much like another. The differences are subtle, coloured by love.”
J A Baker, The Peregrine

Marcel Proust
“This malady which Swann’s love had become had so proliferated, was so closely interwoven with all his habits, with all his actions, with his thoughts, his health, his sleep, his life, even with what he hoped for after his death, was so utterly inseparable from him, that it would have been impossible to eradicate it without almost entirely destroying him; as surgeons say, his love was no longer operable.”
Marcel Proust, Swann’s Way

Virginia Woolf
“What matters is precisely this; the unspoken at the edge of the spoken.”
Virginia Woolf

Virginia Woolf
“Everything is strange. Things are huge and very small. The stalks of flowers are thick as oak trees. Leaves are high as the domes of vast cathedrals. We are giants, lying here, who can make forests quiver.”
Virginia Woolf, The Waves
