More quotes by D. H. Lawrence
If only I am keen and hard like the sheer tip of a wedge Driven by invisible blows, The rock will split, we shall come at the wonder, we shall find the Hesperides.
D. H. Lawrence
I want to live my life so that my nights are not full of regrets.
D. H. Lawrence
The pyramids of Egypt will not last a moment compared to the daisy.
D. H. Lawrence
Morality which is based on ideas, or on an ideal, is an unmitigated evil.
D. H. Lawrence
Persephone herself is but a voice or a darkness invisible enfolded in the deeper dark of the arms Plutonic, and pierced with the passion of dense gloom, among the splendor of torches of darkness, shedding darkness on the lost bride and her groom.
D. H. Lawrence
You can't insure against the future, except by really believing in the best bit of you, and in the power beyond it.
D. H. Lawrence
Where the electron behaves and misbehaves as it will, where the forces tie themselves up into knots of atoms and come united.
D. H. Lawrence
I'll do my life work, sticking up for the love between man and woman.
D. H. Lawrence
Rippling, rippling, rippling, like a flapping overlapping of soft flames, soft as feathers, running to points of brilliance, exquisite, exquisite and melting her all molten inside.
D. H. Lawrence
The # cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts.
D. H. Lawrence
A book lives as long as it is unfathomed.
D. H. Lawrence
The old ideals are dead as nails--nothing there. It seems to me there remains only this perfect union with a woman--sort of ultimate marriage--and there isn't anything else.
D. H. Lawrence
It's hard to ravish a tin of sardines.
D. H. Lawrence
The nature of the infant is not just a new permutation-and-combination of elements contained in the natures of the parents. There is in the nature of the infant that which is utterly unknown in the natures of the parents.
D. H. Lawrence
The world is wonderful and beautiful and good beyond one's wildest imagination.
D. H. Lawrence
Now in November nearer comes the sun down the abandoned heaven.
D. H. Lawrence
What one does in one's art, that is the breath of one's being. What one does in one's life, that is a bagatelle for the outsiders to fuss about.
D. H. Lawrence
But that is how men are! Ungrateful and never satisfied. When you don't have them they hate you because you won't and when you do have them they hate you again, for some other reason. Or for no reason at all, except that they are discontented children, and can't be satisfied whatever they get, let a woman do what she may.
D. H. Lawrence
I have a very great fear of love. It is so personal. Let each bird fly with its own wings, and each fish swim its own course.--Morning brings more than love. And I want to be true to the morning.
D. H. Lawrence
Without secrecy there would be no pornography. But secrecy and modesty are two utterly different things.
D. H. Lawrence
