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
I'll do my life work, sticking up for the love between man and woman.
D. H. Lawrence
The deadly Hydra now is the hydra of Equality. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity is the three-fanged serpent.
D. H. Lawrence
Eat and carouse with Bacchus, or munch dry bread with Jesus, but don't sit down without one of the gods.
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
Behold then Septimus Dodge returning to Dodge-town victorious. Not crowned with laurel, it is true, but wreathed in lists of things he has seen and sucked dry. Seen and sucked dry, you know: Venus de Milo, the Rhine or the Coliseum: swallowed like so many clams, and left the shells.
D. H. Lawrence
Sleep is still most perfect, in spite of hygienists, when it is shared with a beloved.
D. H. Lawrence
America is neither free nor brave, but a land of tight, iron-clanking little wills, everybody trying to put it over everybody else, and a land of men absolutely devoid of the real courage of trust, trust in life's sacred spontaneity. They can't trust life until they can control it.
D. H. Lawrence
The world is wonderful and beautiful and good beyond one's wildest imagination.
D. H. Lawrence
Good God, what does it matter? If life is a tragedy, or a farce, or a disaster, or anything else, what do I care! Let life be what it likes. Give me a drink, that's what I want just now.
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
And what's romance? Usually, a nice little tale where you have everything As You Like It, where rain never wets your jacket and gnats never bite your nose and it's always daisy-time.
D. H. Lawrence
When I hear modern people complain of being lonely then I know what has happened. They have lost the cosmos.
D. H. Lawrence
She was always waiting, it seemed to be her forte.
D. H. Lawrence
It's hard to ravish a tin of sardines.
D. H. Lawrence
The mystery of the evening-star brilliant in silence and distance between the downward-surging plunge of the sun and the vast, hollow seething of inpouring night. The magnificence of the watchful morning-star, that watches between the night and the day, the gleaming clue to the two opposites.
D. H. Lawrence
For God’s sake, let us be men not monkeys minding machines or sitting with our tails curled while the machine amuses us, the radio or film or gramophone. Monkeys with a bland grin on our faces.
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
We don't exist unless we are deeply and sensually in touch with that which can be touched but not known.
D. H. Lawrence
You don't want to be an animal, you want to observe your own animal functions, so as to get a mental thrill out of them. It is allpurely secondary--and more decadent than the most hide-bound intellectualism.
D. H. Lawrence
