Charles Edward Hallé (1846 - 1914) - At Vespers

I need solitude. I need space. I need air. I need the empty fields round me; and my legs pounding along roads; and sleep; and animal existence.
—      Virginia Woolf, The Diary of Virginia Woolf 

Alone, deepening.
—      Sylvia Plath, from The Unabridged Journals Of Sylvia Plath

I like observing people. I like looking at things.

—	Virginia Woolf, The Voyage Out
