More quotes by 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
For {she} had adopted the standard of the young: what there was in the moment was everything. And moments followed one another without necessarily belonging to one another.
D. H. Lawrence
Sometimes life takes hold of one, carries the body along, accomplishes one's history, and yet is not real, but leaves oneself as it were slurred over.
D. H. Lawrence
No man is a man unless to his woman he is a pioneer.
D. H. Lawrence
It is so much more difficult to live with one's body than with one's soul. One's body is so much more exacting: what it won't have it won't have, and nothing can make bitter into sweet.
D. H. Lawrence
I want to live my life so that my nights are not full of regrets.
D. H. Lawrence
The human consciousness is really homogeneous. There is no complete forgetting, even in death.
D. H. Lawrence
Sex is just another form of talk, where you act the words instead of saying them.
D. H. Lawrence
I like to write when I feel spiteful it's like having a good sneeze.
D. H. Lawrence
And besides, look at elder flowers and bluebells-they are a sign that pure creation takes place - even the butterfly. But humanity never gets beyond the caterpillar stage -it rots in the chrysalis, it never will have wings.It is anti-creation, like monkeys and baboons.
D. H. Lawrence
Thought is a man in his wholeness, wholly attending.
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
Water is H2O, hydrogen two parts, oxygen one, but there is also a third thing, that makes it water and nobody knows what that is.
D. H. Lawrence
Another head - and a black alpaca jacket and a serviette this time - to tell us coffee is ready. Not before it is time, too.
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
We've got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen.
D. H. Lawrence
The sense of wonder, that is our sixth sense.
D. H. Lawrence
How ravished one could be without ever being touched. Ravished by dead words become obscene and dead ideas become obsessions.
D. H. Lawrence
The great mass of humanity should never learn to read or write.
D. H. Lawrence
I have lived among enough painters and around studios to have had all the theories - and how contradictory they are - rammed down my throat. A man has to have a gizzard like an ostrich to digest all the brass-tacks and wire nails of modern art theories.
