Image
Yea, Paris is a festive ton -- a festive Ton for all! Skate o'er on joy -- Thin crust of gilded, polished joy! What matters it if Hell's beneath?
D. H. Lawrence
Image
Pornography is the attempt to insult sex, to do dirt on it.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
My God, what a clumsy olla putrida James Joyce is! Nothing but old fags and cabbage stumps of quotations from the Bible and the rest, stewed in the juice of deliberate, journalistic dirty-mindedness—what old and hard-worked staleness, masquerading as the all-new!

A woman needn't be dragged down by her functions.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
there is no pornography without a secrecy.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
When passion is dead, or absent, then the magnificent throb of beauty is incomprehensible and even a little despicable.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
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
Image
We ought to dance with rapture that we should be alive and in the flesh, and part of the living, incarnate cosmos.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
One could laugh at the world better if it didn't mix tender kindliness with its brutality.
D. H. Lawrence

You don't learn algebra with your blessed soul. Can't you look at it with your clear simple wits?
D. H. Lawrence
Image
Only this shimmeriness is the real living. The shape is a dead crust. The shimmer is inside really.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
A man and a woman are new to one another throughout a life-time, in the rhythm of marriage that matches the rhythm of the year. Sex is the balance of male and female in the universe, the attraction, the repulsion, the transit of neutrality, the new attraction, the repulsion, always different, always new.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
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
Image
We do all like to get things inside a barb-wire corral. Especially our fellow-men. We love to round them up inside the barb-wire enclosure of FREEDOM, and make 'em work. Work, you free jewel, WORK! shouts the liberator, cracking his whip.

What the eye doesn't see and the mind doesn't know, doesn't exist.
D. H. Lawrence
Image
I'm not sure if a mental relation with a woman doesn't make it impossible to love her. To know the mind of a woman is to end in hating her. Love means the pre-cognitive flow...it is the honest state before the apple.

Not that the Red Indian will ever possess the broad lands of America. At least I presume not. But his ghost will.

Image
Every profound new movement makes a great swing also backwards to some older, half-forgotten way of consciousness.

Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.
