Indifference

Famous quotes containing the word indifference:

“That a famous library has been cursed by a woman is a matter of complete indifference to a famous library. Venerable and calm, with all its treasures safe locked within its breast, it sleeps complacently and will, so far as I am concerned, so sleep forever. Never will I wake these echoes, never will I ask for that hospitality again ...”
—Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

“A conversation in English in Finnish and in French can not be held at the same time nor with indifference ever or after a time.”
