More quotes by James Joyce
You behold in me, Stephen said with grim displeasure, a horrible example of free thought.
James Joyce
and yet her name was like a summons to all my foolish blood.
James Joyce
I want to give a picture of Dublin so complete that if the city suddenly disappeared from the earth it could be reconstructed out of my book.
James Joyce
All things are inconstant except the faith in the soul, which changes all things and fills their inconstancy with light.
James Joyce
My intention was to write a chapter of the moral history of my country and I chose Dublin for the scene because that city seemed to me the centre of paralysis.
James Joyce
What incensed him the most was the blatant jokes of the ones that passed it all off as a jest, pretending to understand everything and in reality not knowing their own minds.
James Joyce
One of the things I could never get accustomed to in my youth was the difference I found between life and literature.
James Joyce
Can't bring back time. Like holding water in your hand.
James Joyce
Jesus was a bachelor and never lived with a woman. Surely living with a woman is one of the most difficult things a man has to do, and he never did it.
James Joyce
Beware the horns of a bull, the heels of the horse, and the smile of an Englishman.
James Joyce
My heart is quite calm now. I will go back.
James Joyce
Full many a flower is born to blush unseen.
James Joyce
Christopher Columbus, as everyone knows, is honored by posterity because he was the last to discover America.
James Joyce
Though people may read more into Ulysses than I ever intended, who is to say that they are wrong: do any of us know what we are creating?Which of us can control our scribblings? They are the script of one's personality like your voice or your walk
James Joyce
Love, yes. Word known to all men.
James Joyce
When I heard the word ''stream'' uttered with such a revolting primness, what I think of is urine and not the contemporary novel. And besides, it isn't new, it is far from the dernier cri. Shakespeare used it continually, much too much in my opinion, and there's Tristam Shandy, not to mention the Agamemnon.
James Joyce
If Ireland is to become a new Ireland she must first become European.
James Joyce
In the particular is contained the universal.
James Joyce
I'll tickle his catastrophe.
James Joyce
He comes into the world God knows how, walks on the water, gets out of his grave and goes up off the Hill of Howth. What drivel is this?
James Joyce
