I found out how the presence of people stresses me out. Being alone, living alone, I’m a better person while I’m alone. I work better as a person at least.
I am afraid of getting older … I am afraid of getting married. Spare me from cooking three meals a day—spare me from the relentless cage of routine and rote. I want to be free…. I want, I want to think, to be omniscient…. I think I would like to call myself ‘The girl who wanted to be God.’
— Sylvia Plath, written in 1949 at age 17 (via lungs-)
