“Externally, things always go badly with me, because I don’t love it (the external), I take no account of it, I don’t give it the required importance and demand nothing from it. Everything I love changes from an external thing into an inward one, from the moment of my love, it stops being external.”
Marina Tsvetaeva, in a letter to Boris Pasternak written c. October 1926

— Chelsea Wolfe, from an interview conducted c. November 2017
