This is human life: this is the infinitely precious stuff issued in a narrow roll to us now, and then withdrawn forever; and we spend it thus. Days without definite sensation are the worst of all. Days when one compells oneself to undergo this or that for some reason - but what reason?

—Virginia Woolf, Diary Entry, 22 July, 1926.
