— Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the 

people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train 
myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live 
and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical 
experience possible in life. And I am horribly limited.”
