"From childhood’s hour I have not been
As others were—I have not seen
As others saw—I could not bring
My passions from a common spring—
From the same source I have not taken
My sorrow—I could not awaken
My heart to joy at the same tone—
And all I lov’d—I lov’d alone—
Then—in my childhood—in the dawn
Of a most stormy life—was drawn
From ev’ry depth of good and ill
The mystery which binds me still—
From the torrent, or the fountain—
From the red cliff of the mountain—
From the sun that ’round me roll’d
In its autumn tint of gold—
From the lightning in the sky
As it pass’d me flying by—
From the thunder, and the storm—
And the cloud that took the form
(When the rest of Heaven was blue)
Of a demon in my view—"
Alone. Edgar Allan Poe, 1829.

“Here are my resolutions for the next 3 months; the next lap of the year. First, to have none. Not to be tied. Second, to be free & kindly with myself, not goading it to parties: to sit rather privately reading in the studio. To make a good job of The Waves. To care nothing for making money. Then—well the chief resolution is the most important—not to make resolutions. Sometimes to read, sometimes not to read. To go out yes—but stay at home in spite of being asked. As for clothes, I think to buy good ones.”
— Virginia Woolf in her diary, 2 January 1931

“In some stories, the heroine’s wishes are granted by a black cow, a fish, a dove, a red calf, or a tree. Sometimes she attends two or even three balls, looking lovelier each night. A few center on mistreated boys. But in all of them, the degraded central character triumphs over the abusers.” -Charles Soloman
