More quotes by D. H. Lawrence
Ethics and equity and the principles of justice do not change with the calendar.
D. H. Lawrence
What's that as flies without wings, your ladyship? Time! Time!
D. H. Lawrence
So long as you don't feel life's paltry and a miserable business, the rest doesn't matter, happiness or unhappiness.
D. H. Lawrence
The deadly Hydra now is the hydra of Equality. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity is the three-fanged serpent.
D. H. Lawrence
The past. The Golden Age of the past. What a nostalgia we all feel for it. Yet we don't want it when we get it. Try the South Seas.
D. H. Lawrence
Try to find your deepest issue in every confusion, and abide by that.
D. H. Lawrence
My great religion is a belief in the blood, the flesh, as being wiser than the intellect. We can go wrong in our minds. But what our blood feels and believes and says, is always true. The intellect is only a bit and a bridle.
D. H. Lawrence
A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch.
D. H. Lawrence
Only at his maximum does an individual surpass all his derivative elements, and become purely himself. And most people never get there. In his own pure individuality a man surpasses his father and mother, and is utterly unknown to them.
D. H. Lawrence
The pyramids of Egypt will not last a moment compared to the daisy.
D. H. Lawrence
I should think the American admiration of five-minute tourists has done more to kill the sacredness of old European beauty and aspiration than multitudes of bombs would have done.
D. H. Lawrence
When passion is dead, or absent, then the magnificent throb of beauty is incomprehensible and even a little despicable.
D. H. Lawrence
Pure morality is only an instinctive adjustment which the soul makes.
D. H. Lawrence
To penetrate into Italy is like a most fascinating act of self-discovery-back, back down the old ways of time. Strange and wonderful chords awake in us, and vibrate again after many hundreds of years of complete forgetfulness.
D. H. Lawrence
The human being is a most curious creature. He thinks he has got one soul, and he has got dozens.
D. H. Lawrence
To every man who struggles with his own soul in mystery, a book that is a book flowers once, and seeds, and is gone.
D. H. Lawrence
And can a man his own quietus make with a bare bodkin?
D. H. Lawrence
And if tonight my soul may find her peace in sleep, and sink in good oblivion, and in the morning wake like a new-opened flower then I have been dipped again in God, and new-created.
D. H. Lawrence
The purest lesson our era has taught is that man, at his highest, is an individual, single, isolate, alone, in direct soul-communication with the unknown God, which prompts within him.
D. H. Lawrence
She had borne so long the cruelty of belonging to him and not being claimed by him.
D. H. Lawrence
