Sylvia Plath : (4)

" 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. " - Sylvia Plath

" The sea was our main entertainment. When company came, we set them before it on rugs, with thermoses and sandwiches and colored umbrellas, as if the water – blue, green, gray, navy or silver as it might be – were enough to watch. " - Sylvia Plath

" The next five months are grim ones. I always feel sorry to have the summertime change, with the dark evenings closing in mid-afternoon, and will try to lay in some physical comforts these months – the best insurance against gloominess for me. " - Sylvia Plath

" I think that personal experience is very important, but certainly it shouldn’t be a kind of shut-box and mirror-looking, narcissistic experience. I believe it should be relevant, and relevant to the larger things, the bigger things, such as Hiroshima and Dachau and so on. " - Sylvia Plath
