Milan Kundera

Sylvia Plath

Sylvia Plath
“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

Jonathan Safran Foer
“When I looked at you, my life made sense. Even the bad things made sense. They were necessary to make you possible.”
Jonathan Safran Foer

Sylvia Plath
“I must be lean & write & make worlds beside this to live in.”
