Anne Carson, “Being Purple”, in Answer Scars, as part of Roni Horn’s Wonderwater / Alice Offshore (via dianaofarcadia)

Now I will wrap my agony inside my pocket-handkerchief…I will take my anguish and lay it upon the roots under the beech trees. I will examine it and take it between my fingers. They will not find me. I shall eat nuts and peer for eggs through the brambles and my hair will be matted and I shall sleep under hedges and drink water from ditches and die there.

Virginia Woolf, The Waves (via soracities)

I’m not falling into the trap of thinking the right thing to do is be unhappy, Eduardo. I want to enjoy everything and then die and be damned! be damned! be damned! …Passivity. I won’t go in for that either, no passivity whatsoever, what I want to do is bathe naked in the muddy river that resembles me, naked and free.

Clarice Lispector, from “The Departure of the Train”, Complete Stories (trans. Katarina Dodson)
