More quotes by Katherine Mansfield
You have never been curious about me you never wanted to explore my soul.
Katherine Mansfield
Do you remember your childhood? I am always coming across these marvelous accounts by writers who declare that they remember 'everything.' I certainly don't. The dark stretches, the blanks, are much bigger than the bright glimpses. I seem to have spent most of my time like a plant in a cupboard.
Katherine Mansfield
I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.
Katherine Mansfield

Katherine Mansfield
The great thing to remember is we can do whatever we wish to do provided our wish is strong enough.
Katherine Mansfield
Everything in life that we really accept undergoes a change.
Katherine Mansfield

Katherine Mansfield
Some couples go over their budgets very carefully every month. Others just go over them.
Katherine Mansfield
It is of immense importance to learn to laugh at ourselves.
Katherine Mansfield
Oh, how quickly things changed! Why didn't happiness last for ever? For ever wasn't a bit too long.
Katherine Mansfield
Regret is an appalling waste of time.
Katherine Mansfield
My love for you tonight is so deep and tender that it seems to be outside myself as well.
Katherine Mansfield
How hard it is to escape from places. However carefully one goes they hold you — you leave little bits of yourself fluttering on the fences — like rags and shreds of your very life.
Katherine Mansfield
Ach, Tchekov! Why are you dead? Why can’t I talk to you in a big darkish room at late evening—where the light is green from the waving trees outside? I’d like to write a series of Heavens: that would be one.
Katherine Mansfield
Who is to decide between 'Let it be' and 'Force it'?
