Additional quotes by Sylvia Plath

Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.

How we need that security. How we need another soul to cling to, another body to keep us warm. To rest and trust; to give your soul in confidence: I need this, I need someone to pour myself into.

Character is fate.

It was my first big chance, but here I was, sitting back and letting it run through my fingers like so much water. - Sylvia Plath
