More quotes by 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
If a novel reveals true and vivid relationships, it is a moral work, no matter what the relationships consist in. If the novelisthonours the relationship in itself, it will be a great novel.
D. H. Lawrence
Obscenity only comes in when the mind despises and fears the body, and the body hates and resists the mind.
D. H. Lawrence
God how I hate new countries: They are older than the old, more sophisticated, much more conceited, only young in a certain puerile vanity more like senility than anything.
D. H. Lawrence
Money is our madness, our vast collective madness.
D. H. Lawrence
Thought is a man in his wholeness, wholly attending.
D. H. Lawrence
How sure I feel, how warm and strong and happy For the future! How sure the future is within me I am like a seed with a perfect flower enclosed.
D. H. Lawrence
Are you willing to be sponged out, erased, cancelled, made nothing? Are you willing to be made nothing? Dipped into oblivion? If not, you will never really change.
D. H. Lawrence
Morality which is based on ideas, or on an ideal, is an unmitigated evil.
D. H. Lawrence
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!
D. H. Lawrence
She is my first, great love. She was a wonderful, rare woman - you do not know as strong, and steadfast, and generous as the sun. She could be as swift as a white whiplash, and as kind and gentle as warm rain, and as steadfast as the irreducible earth beneath us.
D. H. Lawrence
Censors are dead men set up to judge between life and death. For no live, sunny man would be a censor, he'd just laugh.
D. H. Lawrence
Instead of chopping yourself down to fit the world, chop the world down to fit yourself.
D. H. Lawrence
Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children, brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their grandchildren are once more slaves.
D. H. Lawrence
Sleep is still most perfect, in spite of hygienists, when it is shared with a beloved.
D. H. Lawrence
God is only a great imaginative experience.
D. H. Lawrence
I got the blues thinking of the future, so I left off and made some marmalade. It's amazing how it cheers one up to shred orange and scrub the floor.
D. H. Lawrence
[Man's] life consists in a relation with all things: stone, earth, trees, flowers, water, insects, fishes, birds, creatures, sun,rainbow, children, women, other men. But his greatest and final relation is with the sun.
D. H. Lawrence
That's it! When you come to know men, that's how they are: too sensitive in the wrong place.
D. H. Lawrence
The only history is a mere question of one's struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.
D. H. Lawrence
