What with the silence, and the possibility of walking out, at any
moment over long wonderfully coloured roads to cliffs with the sea
beneath, and coming back past lighted windows to one’s tea and fire and
book - and then one has thoughts and a conception of the world and
moments like a dragon fly in air - with all this I am kept very lively
in my head.
Virginia Woolf, from a letter to Clive Bell dated 26 December 1909.
