More quotes by Dorothy L. Sayers
Britain possesses no climate, only weather.
Dorothy L. Sayers
And what do all the great words come to in the end, but that? I love you - I am at rest with you - I have come home.
Dorothy L. Sayers
God was executed by people painfully like us, in a society very similar to our own ... by a corrupt church, a timid politician, and a fickle proletariat led by professional agitators.
Dorothy L. Sayers
this is the weakness of most 'edifying' or 'propaganda' literature. There is no diversity...You cannot, in fact, give God His due without giving the devil his due also.
Dorothy L. Sayers
We may argue eloquently that 'Honesty is the best Policy' - unfortunately, the moment honesty is adopted for the sake of policy it mysteriously ceases to be honesty.
Dorothy L. Sayers
No share-pusher could vend his worthless stock, if he could not count on meeting, in his prospective victim, an unscrupulous avarice as vicious as his own, but stupider. Every time a man expects, as he says, his money to work for him, he is expecting other people to work for him.
Dorothy L. Sayers
Except ye become as little children, except you can wake on your fiftieth birthday with the same forward-looking excitement and interest in life that you enjoyed when you were five, ye cannot enter the kingdom of God. One must not only die daily, but every day we must be born again.
Dorothy L. Sayers
But that's men all over ... Poor dears, they can't help it. They haven't got logical minds.
Dorothy L. Sayers
Those who make some other person their job... are dangerous.
Dorothy L. Sayers
The education that we have so far succeeded in giving to the bulk of our citizens has produced a generation of mental slatterns.
Dorothy L. Sayers
The war has jerked us pretty sharply into consciousness about this slug-a-bed sin of Sloth, and perhaps we need not say too much about it. But two warnings are rather necessary.
Dorothy L. Sayers
If men will not understand the meaning of judgement, they will never come to understand the meaning of grace.
Dorothy L. Sayers
the heaviest restriction upon the freedom of public opinion is not the official censorship of the Press, but the unofficial censorship by a Press which exists not so much to express opinion as to manufacture it.
Dorothy L. Sayers
To foment grievance and to set men at variance is the trade by which agitators thrive and journalists make money.
Dorothy L. Sayers
Paradoxical as it may seem, to believe in youth is to look backward to look forward we must believe in age.
Dorothy L. Sayers
To start with invention is the mark of the fertile mind ... and leads later to the interpretation of experience to start with the reproduction of experience is the infallible index of a barren invention.
Dorothy L. Sayers
If you want your own way, God will let you have it. Hell is the enjoyment of one's own way forever.
Dorothy L. Sayers
How true it is that men live for Things and women for People!
Dorothy L. Sayers
He was so crooked, you could have used his spine for a safety-pin.
Dorothy L. Sayers
A facility for quotation covers the absence of original thought.
Dorothy L. Sayers
