Rebecca Harlem
“Fame to an artist is like light to a vampire.”
Rebecca Harlem, The Pink Cadillac

Virginia Woolf
“And if we can imagine the art of fiction come alive and standing in our midst, she would undoubtedly bid us break her and bully her, as well as honour and love her, for so her youth is renewed and her sovereignty assured.”
Virginia Woolf, Selected Essays
