About Me

"...all this was to the good. but no abundance of sensation or fineness of perception would avail unless she could build up out of the fleeting and the personal, the lasting edifice which remains unthrown. i had said that i would wait until she faced herself with a "situation." i meant by that, until she proved by summoning, beckoning, and getting together that she was not a skimmer of surfaces merely, but had looked beneath into the depths."~Virginia Woolf, A Room of One's Own.....This profile was edited with MySpace Help - Profile Creator and Editor MySpace Profile Help!
