More quotes by James Joyce
The demand that I make of my reader is that he should devote his whole Life to reading my works.
James Joyce
His heart danced upon her movement like a cork upon a tide.
James Joyce
In woman's womb word is made flesh but in the spirit of the maker all flesh that passes becomes the word that shall not pass away. This is the postcreation.
James Joyce
[Robinson Crusoe] is the true prototype of the British colonist. The whole Anglo-Saxon spirit is in Crusoe: the manly independence, the unconscious cruelty, the persistence, the slow yet efficient intelligence, the sexual apathy, the calculating taciturnity.
James Joyce
I shall write a book some day about the appropriateness of names. Geoffrey Chaucer has a ribald ring, as is proper and correct, and Alexander Pope was inevitably Alexander Pope. Colley Cibber was a silly little man without much elegance and Shelley was very Percy and very Bysshe.
James Joyce
The movements which work revolutions in the world are born out of the dreams and visions in a peasant's heart on the hillside.
James Joyce
History, Stephen said, is a nightmare from which I am trying to awake.
James Joyce
Never let us do wrong, because our opponents did so. Let us, rather, by doing right, show them what they ought to have done, and establish a rule the dictates of reason and conscience, rather than of the angry passions.
James Joyce
There is not past, no future everything flows in an eternal present.
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
I hear the ruin of all space, shattered glass and toppled masonry, and time one livid final flame.
James Joyce
Alone, what did Bloom feel? The cold of interstellar space, thousands of degrees below freezing point or the absolute zero of Fahrenheit, Centigrade or RĂ©aumur: the incipient intimations of proximate dawn.
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
My heart is quite calm now. I will go back.
James Joyce
You behold in me, Stephen said with grim displeasure, a horrible example of free thought.
James Joyce
In the name of Annah the Allmaziful, the Everliving, the Bringer of Plurabilities, haloed be her eve, her singtime sung, her rill be run, unhemmed as it is uneven!
James Joyce
It is a symbol of Irish art. The cracked looking-glass of a servant.
James Joyce
I am a worker, a tombstone mason, anxious to pleace averyburies and jully glad when Christmas comes his once ayear.
James Joyce
I care not if I live but a day and a night, so long as my deeds live after me.
James Joyce
A man's errors are his portals of discovery.
James Joyce
