Sylvia Plath Quotes

So much working, reading, thinking, living to do. A lifetime is not long enough. Nor youth to old age long enough. Immortality and permanence be damned. Sure I want them, but they are nonexistent, and won’t matter when I rot underground. All I want to say is: I made the best of a mediocre job. It was a good fight while it lasted. And so life goes Picture Quote #1

I have this demon who wants me to run away screaming if I am going to be flawed, fallible. It wants me to think I’m so good I must be perfect. Or nothing. I am, on the contrary, something: a being who gets tired, has shyness to fight, has more trouble than most facing people easily Picture Quote #1

Does she know you love her? Of course. I paused. The obstacle seemed unreal to me. If you love her, I said, you’ll love somebody else someday Picture Quote #1

I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart. I am. I am. I am Picture Quote #1

If I didn’t think, I’d be much happier; if I didn’t have any sex organs, I wouldn’t waver on the brink of nervous emotion and tears all the time Picture Quote #1

I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between Picture Quote #1

How can you be so many women to so many strange people, oh you strange girl? Picture Quote #1

You are the one. Solid the spaces lean on, envious. You are the baby in the barn Picture Quote #1

It was my first big chance, but here I was, sitting back and letting it run through my fingers like so much water Picture Quote #1

I couldn’t see the point of getting up. I had nothing to look forward to Picture Quote #1

I felt the first man I slept with must be intelligent, so I could respect him Picture Quote #1

…I hate myself for not being able to go downstairs naturally and seek comfort in numbers. I hate myself for having to sit here and be torn between I know not what within me Picture Quote #1

August rain: the best of the summer gone, and the new fall not yet born. The odd uneven time Picture Quote #1

I am solitary as grass. What is it I miss? Shall I ever find it, whatever it is? Picture Quote #1

I am gone quite mad with the knowledge of accepting the overwhelming number of things I can never know, places I can never go, and people I can never be Picture Quote #1

The silence between us was so profound I thought part of it must be my fault Picture Quote #1

My boy, it’s your last resort. Will you marry it, marry it, marry it Picture Quote #1
