"I must return to Cambridge in the autumn and winter of 1899. I felt terribly lonely in my first few days at Trinity…But suddenly everything changed and almost for the first time one felt that to be young was very heaven. The reason was simple. Suddenly I found to my astonishment that there were a number of people near and about me with whom I could enjoy the exciting and at the same time profound happiness of friendship."

+ Leonard Woolf on the origins of Bloomsbury in an excerpt from his memoirs entitled “Cambridge Friends and Influences.” (via thebloomsburygroup)

theglitterguide: (via (6) Glitter Guide / Pinterest) I may just start posting pictures of outfits I like.  This makes me think of coming out of class at Cambridge or Oxford, my head full of new ideas, on the way to a favourite coffee shop or sitting by the river.  I think I would just like a nice trench-coat.
