Famous quotes containing the words daniel and/or woolf:

    This honour is a thing conceived
    And rests on others’ fame;
    —Samuel Daniel (1562–1619)

    But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking?—the entombed soul, the spirit driven in, in, in to the central catacomb; the self that took the veil and left the world—a coward perhaps, yet somehow beautiful, as it flits with its lantern restlessly up and down the dark corridors.
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)
