A Quote by Virginia Woolf

We scarcely wish to analyse what we feel to be so large and deeply human. — © Virginia Woolf
We scarcely wish to analyse what we feel to be so large and deeply human.
When you love, deeply love another human being, really deeply, somewhere you will feel that you are still alone, and this very beloved human being has no access.
It is not possible to become a great player without having learned how to analyse deeply and accurately.
What is the point of teaching how to analyse a poem or a piece of Shakespeare but not to analyse the Internet?
If you ant to feel deeply, you have to think deeply. Too often we separate the two. We assume that if we want to feel deeply, then we need to sit around and, well, feel. But emotion built on emotion is empty. True emotion- emotion that is reliable and does not lead us astray- is always a response to reality, to truth.
Most coaches' attention to detail is very good; it's their job. They have to analyse teams, and they have to analyse their own team.
Dearly departed, scarcely lamented, deeply demented.
Our civilization is still in a middle stage, scarcely beast, in that it is no longer wholly guided by instinct; scarcely human, in that it is not yet wholly guided by reason.
The media do not analyse the game. They analyse the result.
Can it be possible that all human sympathies can thrive, and all human powers be exercised, and all human joys increase, if we live with all our might with the thirty or forty people next to us, telegraphing kindly to all other people, to be sure? Can it be possible that our passion for large cities, and large parties, and large theatres, and large churches, develops no faith nor hope nor love which would not find aliment and exercise in a little "world of our own"?
The large banking interests were deeply interested in the World War because of the wide opportunities for large profits.
At a fundamental level, as human beings, we are all the same; each one of us aspires to happiness and each one of us does not wish to suffer. This is why, whenever I have the opportunity, I try to draw people's attention to what as members of the human family we have in common and the deeply interconnected nature of our existence and welfare.
Coitus can scarcely be said to take place in a vacuum; although of itself it appears a biological and physical activity, it is set so deeply within the larger context of human affairs that it serves as a charged microcosm of the variety of attitudes and values to which culture subscribes. Among other things, it may serve as a model of sexual politics on an individual or personal plane.
The possibilities of existence run so deeply into the extravagant that there is scarcely any conception too extraordinary for Nature to realise.
Many religions have attempted to make statues of their gods very large, and the idea, I suppose, is to make us feel small. But if that's their purpose, they can keep their paltry icons. We need only look up if we wish to feel small.
Certainly the first true humans were unique by virtue of their large brains. It was because the human brain is so large when compared with that of a chimpanzee that paleontologists for years hunted for a half-ape, half-human skeleton that would provide a fossil link between the human and the ape.
If we wish to know the force of human genius, we should read Shakespeare. If we wish to see the insignificance of human learning, we may study his commentators.
