I hate handing over money to people for doing what I could just as easily do myself, it makes me nervous.
SYLVIA PLATHI hate handing over money to people for doing what I could just as easily do myself, it makes me nervous.
SYLVIA PLATHI talk to God but the sky is empty.
SYLVIA PLATHI have never found anybody who could stand to accept the daily demonstrative love I feel in me, and give back as good as I give.
SYLVIA PLATHThe constant struggle in mature life, I think, is to accept the necessity of tragedy and conflict, and not to try to escape to some falsely simple solution which does not include these more somber complexities.
SYLVIA PLATHI dream too much, work too little.
SYLVIA PLATHThe sheets grow heavy as a lecher’s kiss.
SYLVIA PLATHI felt wise and cynical as all hell.
SYLVIA PLATHI felt overstuffed and dull and disappointed, the way I always do the day after Christmas.
SYLVIA PLATHI want so obviously, so desperately to be loved, and to be capable of love.
SYLVIA PLATHI have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad. Or I can go mad by ricocheting in between.
SYLVIA PLATHThe hardest thing, I think, is to live richly in the present, without letting it be tainted and spoiled out of fear for the future or regret for a badly-managed past.
SYLVIA PLATHWhen you give someone your whole heart and he doesn’t want it, you cannot take it back. It’s gone forever.
SYLVIA PLATHA man’s world is different from a woman’s world and a man’s emotions are different from a woman’s emotions and only marriage can bring the two different sets of emotions together properly.
SYLVIA PLATHEvery day is precious and I feel infinitely sad at this time melting away from me.
SYLVIA PLATHWear your heart on your skin in this life.
SYLVIA PLATHIf you expect nothing from somebody you are never disappointed.
SYLVIA PLATH
