Sylvia Plath Quotes

Love is a shadow./How you lie and cry after it./Listen: these are its hooves: it has gone off, like a horse./All night I shall gallop thus, impetuously,/Till your head is a stone, your pillow a little turf,/Echoing, echoing.

Sylvia Plath

From whence shall we expect the approach of danger? Shall some trans-Atlantic military giant step the earth and crush us at a blow? Never.

I would like to believe in the myth that we grow wiser with age. In a sense my disbelief is wisdom. Those of a middle generation, if charitable or sentimental, subscribe to the wisdom myth, while the callous see us as dispensable objects, like broken furniture or dead flowers. For the young we scarcely exist unless we are unavoidable members of the same family, farting, slobbering, perpetually mislaying teeth and bifocals. Patrick White
