Woolf-child Howls

"Those elderly ladies, who sit on the edge of ballrooms sampling the stuff of humanity between finger and thumb and breathing so evenly that the necklaces, which rise and fall upon their breast, seem to represent some elemental force, concluded, a little smilingly, that she would do."

- Night and Day (1919)

That is why I love Virginia Woolf.
