Additional quotes by Sylvia Plath

I felt very still and empty, the way the eye of a tornado must feel, moving dully along in the middle of the surrounding hullabaloo.

I talk to God but the sky is empty.

I must be lean & write & make worlds beside this to live in.

The silence depressed me. It wasn't the silence of silence. It was my own silence. - Sylvia Plath
