More quotes by James Joyce
Why is it that words like these seem dull and cold? Is it because there is no word tender enough to be your name?
James Joyce

James Joyce
Old father, old artificer, stand me now and ever in good stead.
James Joyce
A dim antagonism gathered force within him and darkened his mind as a cloud against her disloyalty: and when it passed, cloudlike, leaving his mind serene and dutiful towards her again, he was made aware dimly and without regret of a first noiseless sundering of their lives.
James Joyce
She would follow, her dream of love, the dictates of her heart that told her he was her all in all, the only man in all the world for her for love was the master guide. Come what might she would be wild, untrammelled, free.
James Joyce
Beware the horns of a bull, the heels of the horse, and the smile of an Englishman.
James Joyce
We were always loyal to lost causes...Success for us is the death of the intellect and of the imagination. ~ Professor MacHugh
James Joyce
White pudding and eggs and sausages and cups of tea! How simple and beautiful was life after all!
James Joyce
He thought that he was sick in his heart if you could be sick in that place.
James Joyce
