Quote by Virginia Woolf
There is much to support the view that it is clothes that wear us

There is much to support the view that it is clothes that wear us and not we them; we may make them take the mould of arm or breast, but they would mould our hearts, our brains, our tongues to their liking. – Virginia Woolf
