― Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

[text ID: You are twenty. You are not dead, although you were dead. The girl who died. And was resurrected. Children. Witches. Magic. Symbols. Remember the illogic of the fantasy.]

— Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

[text ID: It seems to me more than ever that I am a victim of introspection. If I have not the power to put myself in the place of other people, but must be continually burrowing inward. I shall never be the magnanimous creative person I wish to be. Yet I am hypnotized by the workings of the individual, alone, and am continually using myself as a specimen.]

– Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

[text ID: Would it be too childish of me to say : I want? But I do want, theater, light, color, paintings, wine and wonder.]

My brilliant friend, Elena Ferrante

— Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath

[text ID: What I fear most, I think, is the death of the imagination.]

“Many of my movies have strong female leads - brave, self-sufficient girls that don’t think twice about fighting for what they believe in with all their heart. They’ll need a friend, or a supporter, but never a saviour. Any woman is just as capable of being a hero as any man.” -Hayao Miyazaki

Happy International Women’s Day!

The God Fit, Anne Carson (from Glass, Irony and God)

― Sylvia Plath, Letters Home

[text ID: I am afraid of getting older. I am afraid of getting married. Spare me from cooking three meals a day—spare me from the relentless cage of routine and rote. I want to be free. (...) I want, I think, to be omniscient… I think I would like to call myself "The girl who wanted to be God." Yet if I were not in this body, where would I be—perhaps I am destined to be classified and qualified. But, oh, I cry out against it. I am I—I am powerful—but to what extent? I am I.]

[text ID: I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.]
