More quotes by Katherine Mansfield
I am treating you as my friend, asking you to share my present minuses in the hope that I can ask you to share my future plusses.
Katherine Mansfield
Perhaps it does not matter so very much what it is one loves in this world. But love something one must.
Katherine Mansfield
Risk! Risk anything! Care no more for the opinions of others, for those voices. Do the hardest thing on earth for you. Act for yourself. Face the truth.
Katherine Mansfield
The late evening is the time of times. Then with that unearthly beauty before one it is not hard to realise how far one has to go. To write something that will be worthy of that rising moon, that pale light.
Katherine Mansfield
If you wish to live, you must first attend your own funeral.
Katherine Mansfield
Do the hardest thing on earth for you. ACT YOURSELF.

What is it with me? Am I absolutely nobody, but merely inordinately vain? I do not know…. But I am most fearfully unhappy. That is all. I am so unhappy that I wish I was dead—yet I should be mad to die when I have not yet lived at all.
Katherine Mansfield
Tidied all my papers. Tore up and ruthlessly destroyed much. This is always a great satisfaction.

Katherine Mansfield
That's all life is - something childish and very natural. Isn't it?
Katherine Mansfield
If only one could tell true love from false love as one can tell mushrooms from toadstools.
Katherine Mansfield
In the woods where snow is thick, bars of sunlight lay like pale fire.
Katherine Mansfield
To work - to work! It is such infinite delight to know that we still have the best things to do.
Katherine Mansfield
I feel I must live alone, alone, alone - with artists only to touch the door. Every artist cuts off his ear and nails it on the outside of the door for the others to shout into.
Katherine Mansfield
Make it a rule of life never to regret and never to look back. Regret is an appalling waste of energy, you can't build on it it's only good for wallowing in.
Katherine Mansfield
There are in life as many aspects as attitudes towards it, and aspects change with attitudes.
Katherine Mansfield
In the shortest sea voyage there is no sense of time. You have been down in the cabin for hours or days or years. Nobody knows or cares. You know all the people to the point of indifference. You do not believe in dry land any more - you are caught in the pendulum itself, and left there, idly swinging.
Katherine Mansfield
Now's the time when children's noses All become as red as roses And the colour of their faces Makes me think of orchard places Where the juicy apples grow, And tomatoes in a row.
Katherine Mansfield
Better to write twaddle, anything, than nothing at all.
Katherine Mansfield
