Additional quotes by Vita Sackville-West

I hope you miss me, though I could scarcely (even in the cause of vanity) wish you to miss me as much as I miss you, for that hurts too much, but what I do hope is that I’ve left some sort of a little blank which won’t be filled till I come back. I bear you a grudge for spoiling me for everybody’s else companionship, it is too bad.

She walks in the loveliness she made,
Between the apple-blossom and the water — She walks among the patterned pied brocade,
Each flower her son, and every tree her daughter.
