Quote by Virginia Woolf
But when the self speaks to the self, who is speaking? The entombed soul, the spirit driven in, in, in to the central catacomb; the self that took the veil and left the world -- a coward perhaps, yet somehow beautiful, as it flits with its lantern restlessly up and down the dark corridors.
Summary
This quote suggests that there is a deeper, introspective dialogue happening within oneself. It questions the nature of this internal conversation and challenges the idea of who is truly speaking. It alludes to the hidden thoughts and emotions locked within the soul, a thoughtful and beautiful existence that may be perceived as cowardly yet wandering courageously through the mysterious corridors of the mind.
