More quotes by D. H. Lawrence
Homer was wrong in saying, Would that strife might pass away from among gods and men! He did not see that he was praying for the destruction of the universe.
D. H. Lawrence
Every profound new movement makes a great swing also backwards to some older, half-forgotten way of consciousness.
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
While the white man keeps the impetus of his own proud, onward march, the dark races will yield and serve, perforce. But let the white man once have a misgiving about his own leadership, and the dark races will at once attack him, to pull him down into the old gulfs.
D. H. Lawrence
Men always do leave off really thinking, when the last bit of wild animal dies in them.
D. H. Lawrence
Primarily I am a passionately religious man, and my novels must be written from the depth of my religious experience.
D. H. Lawrence
We are dying, we are dying, we are all of us dying and nothing will stay the death-flood rising within us and soon it will rise on the world, on the outside world.
D. H. Lawrence
A book lives as long as it is unfathomed.
D. H. Lawrence
He knew that conscience was chiefly fear of society or fear of oneself.
D. H. Lawrence
When one jumps over the edge, one is bound to land somewhere.
D. H. Lawrence
Ethics and equity and the principles of justice do not change with the calendar.
D. H. Lawrence
One doesn't know, till one is a bit at odds with the world, how much one's friends who believe in one rather generously, mean to one.
D. H. Lawrence
The world of men is dreaming, it has gone mad in its sleep, and a snake is strangling it, but it can't wake up.
D. H. Lawrence
The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever. Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time.
D. H. Lawrence
We are so overwhelmed with quantities of books, that we hardly realise any more that a book can be valuable, valuable like a jewel, or a lovely picture, into which you can look deeper and deeper and get a more profound experience every time.
D. H. Lawrence
She herself had never been able to be altogether herself: it had been denied her.
D. H. Lawrence
The elephant, the huge old beast, is slow to mate
D. H. Lawrence
I hold that the parentheses are by far the most important parts of a non-business letter.
D. H. Lawrence
One should stick by one's soul, and by nothing else. In one's soul, one knows the truth from the untruth, and life from death. And if one betrays one's own soul-knowledge one is the worst of traitors.
D. H. Lawrence
In America the cohesion was a matter of choice and will. But in Europe it was organic.
