Quotations from Virginia Woolf, often (but not always) linked to flowers, usually inspired by what is in bloom, and accompanied by my photos and artwork or that of friends. (Quotations are from the standard American editions: mostly the annotated Harcourt Brace series edited by Mark Hussey)

Running Voices: February 7, 2016
7 February, 1931
Here in the few minutes that remain, I must record, heaven be praised, the end of the Waves. I wrote the words O Death fifteen minutes ago, having reeled across the last ten pages with some moments of such intensity & intoxication that I seemed only to stumble after my own voice, or almost after some speaker (as when I was mad). I was almost afraid, remembering the voices that used to run ahead.
