More quotes by D. H. Lawrence
We are so conceited and so unproud.
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
It is quite true, as some poets said, that the God who created man must have had a sinister sense of humor, creating him a reasonable being, yet forcing him to take this ridiculous posture, and driving him with blind craving for this ridiculous performance.
D. H. Lawrence
And every true artist is the salvation of every other. But only artists produce for each other the world that is fit to live in.
D. H. Lawrence
One sheds one's sicknesses in books - repeats and presents again one's emotions, to be master of them.
D. H. Lawrence
If we lose our sanity ... We can but howl the lugubrious howl of idiots, the howl of the utterly lost howling their nowhereness.
D. H. Lawrence
Now the only decent way to get something done is to get it done by somebody who quite likes doing it.
D. H. Lawrence
Logic might be unanswerable because it was so absolutely wrong.
D. H. Lawrence
What's that as flies without wings, your ladyship? Time! Time!
D. H. Lawrence
I want to live my life so that my nights are not full of regrets.
D. H. Lawrence
God doesn't know things. He is things.
D. H. Lawrence
I cannot get any sense of an enemy - only of a disaster.
D. H. Lawrence
The Moon! Artemis! the great goddess of the splendid past of men! Are you going to tell me she is a dead lump?
D. H. Lawrence
I should like [people] to like the purely individual thing in themselves, which makes them act in singleness. and They only like to do the collective thing.
D. H. Lawrence
What one does in one's art, that is the breath of one's being. What one does in one's life, that is a bagatelle for the outsiders to fuss about.
D. H. Lawrence
I am in love - and, my God, it is the greatest thing that can happen to a man. I tell you, find a woman you can fall in love with. Do it. Let yourself fall in love. If you have not done so already, you are wasting your life.
D. H. Lawrence
Money is our madness, our vast collective madness.
D. H. Lawrence
I am only half there when I am ill, and so there is only half a man to suffer. To suffer in one's whole self is so great a violation, that it is not to be endured.
D. H. Lawrence
I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.
D. H. Lawrence
The world is wonderful and beautiful and good beyond one's wildest imagination. Never, never, never could one conceive what love is, beforehand, never. Life can be great-quite god-like. It can be so. God be thanked I have proved it.
D. H. Lawrence
