More quotes by D. H. Lawrence
The history of the cosmos is the history of the struggle of becoming. When the dim flux of unformed life struggled, convulsed back and forth upon itself, and broke at last into light and dark came into existence as light, came into existence as cold shadow then every atom of the cosmos trembled with delight.
D. H. Lawrence
I can only see death and more death, till we are black and swollen with death.
D. H. Lawrence
That's how women are with me said Paul. They want me like mad but they don't want to belong to me.

D. H. Lawrence
A man will part with anything so long as he's drunk, and you're drunk with him.
D. H. Lawrence

D. H. Lawrence
O pity the dead that are dead, but cannot make the journey, still they moan and beat against the silvery adamant walls of life's exclusive city.
D. H. Lawrence
A little morphine in all the air. It would be wonderfully refreshing for everyone.
D. H. Lawrence
Oh the innocent girl in her maiden teens knows perfectly well what everything means.
D. H. Lawrence
We are so conceited and so unproud.
D. H. Lawrence
Truth does not lie beyond humanity, but is one of the products of the human mind and feeling.
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 pyramids of Egypt will not last a moment compared to the daisy.
D. H. Lawrence
Away with all ideals. Let each individual act spontaneously from the forever incalculable prompting of the creative wellhead within him. There is no universal law.
D. H. Lawrence
I do esteem individual liberty above everything.
D. H. Lawrence
Reason is a supple nymph, and slippery as a fish by nature. She had as leave give her kiss to an absurdity any day, as to syllogistic truth. The absurdity may turn out truer.
