<p>Hello, </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I write in hopes that some one on this list can clear something up for me. In my reading I continually come across the reference that Gilles Deleuze makes to Woolf in his essay "Literature and Life." From how it has been quoted by others I thought that Deleuze
was quoting Woolf, but when I go to his essay he doesn't quote at all, simply writes: </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>"To those who ask what literature is, Virginia Woolf responds: To whom are you speaking of writing? The writer does not speak about it, but is concerned with something else."</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>My question: was Deleuze quoting, or even paraphrasing Woolf? If so, from where? Any reference I find simply references Deleuze, and doesn't follow up with a reference to Woolf. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks in advance!</p>
