More quotes by Henry Miller

Image
A man writes to throw off the poison which he has accumulated because of his false way of life. He is trying to recapture his innocence, yet all he succeeds in doing (by writing) is to inoculate the world with a virus of his disillusionment. No man would set a word down on paper if he had the courage to live out what he believed in.
Henry Miller
Image
Moralities, ethics, laws, customs, beliefs, doctrines - these are of trifling import. All that matters is that the miraculous become the norm.
Henry Miller
Image
The man who looks for security, even in the mind, is like a man who would chop off his limbs in order to have artificial ones which will give him no pain or trouble.
Henry Miller
Image
The practice of any art demands more than 'mere savoir faire'. One must not only be in love with what one does, one must also know how to make love. In love self is obliterated. Only the beloved counts.
Henry Miller
Image
When spring comes to Paris the humblest mortal alive must feel that he dwells in paradise.
Henry Miller
Image
Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.
Henry Miller
Image
My hunger and curiosity drive me forward in all directions at once.

Image
Every day the choice is presented to us, to live up to the spirit that is in us, or deny it.
Henry Miller
Image
It is no accident that propels people like us to Paris.
Henry Miller
Image
I see America spreading disaster. I see America as a black curse upon the world. I see a long night settling in and that mushroom which has poisoned the world withering at the roots.
Henry Miller
Image
It does me good to write a letter which is not a response to a demand, a gratuitous letter, so to speak, which has accumulated in me like the waters of a reservoir.
Henry Miller
Image
All the men she's been with and now you, just you, and the barges going by, masts and hulls, the whole damned current of life flowing through you, through her, through all the guys behind you and after you, the flowers and the birds and the sun streaming in and the fragrance of it choking you, annihilating you.
Henry Miller
Image
Every man, when he gets quiet, when he becomes desperately honest with himself, is capable of uttering profound truths. We all derive from the same source. There is no mystery about the origin of things. We are all part of creation, all kings, all poets, all musicians we have only to open up, only to discover what is already there.
Henry Miller
Image
Sex is one of the nine reasons for reincarnation... The other eight are unimportant.
Henry Miller
Image
I have no money, no resources, no hopes. I am the happiest man alive.
Henry Miller
Image
A book lying idle on a shelf is wasted ammunition. Like money, books must be kept in constant circulation... A book is not only a friend, it makes friends for you. When you have possessed a book with mind and spirit, you are enriched. But when you pass it on you are enriched threefold.
Henry Miller
Image
I'd rather sit down and write a letter than call someone up. I hate the telephone.
Henry Miller
Image
I believe that today more than ever a book should be sought after even if it has only one great page in it. We must search for fragments, splinters, toenails, anything that has ore in it, anything that is capable of resuscitating the body and the soul.

What holds the world together, as I have learned from bitter experience, is sexual intercourse.
Henry Miller

The most difficult thing to adjust to, apparently, is peace and contentment.
