"Life is not an orderly progression..."

“Life is not an orderly progression, self-contained like a musical scale or a quadratic equation... If one is to record one's life truthfully, one must aim at getting into the record of it something of the disorderly discontinuity which makes it so absurd, unpredictable, bearable.”

― Leonard Woolf, British political theorist, author, publisher, and civil servant. He was married to author Virginia Woolf.
