More quotes by T. E. Lawrence
If I could talk it like Dahoum, you would never be tired of listening to me.
T. E. Lawrence
The Beduin of the desert, born and grown up in it, had embraced with all his sour this nakedness too harsh for volunteers, for the reason, felt but inarticulate, that there he found himself indubitably free.
T. E. Lawrence
Misery, anger, indignation, discomfort-those conditions produce literature. Contentment-never. So there you are.
T. E. Lawrence
To make war upon rebellion is messy and slow, like eating soup with a knife.
T. E. Lawrence
The greatest commander is he whose intuitions most nearly happen.
T. E. Lawrence
Your success will be proportioned to the amount of mental effort you devote to it.
T. E. Lawrence
Many men would take the death-sentence without a whimper, to escape the life-sentence which fate carries in her other hand.
T. E. Lawrence
As long as the Arabs fight tribe against tribe, so long will they be a little people, a silly people, greedy, barbarous and cruel.
T. E. Lawrence
The beginning and ending of the secret of handling Arabs is unremitting study of them.
T. E. Lawrence
You wonder what I am doing? Well, so do I, in truth. Days seem to dawn, suns to shine, evenings to follow, and then I sleep. What I have done, what I am doing, what I am going to do, puzzle and bewilder me. Have you ever been a leaf and fallen from your tree in autumn and been really puzzled about it? That’s the feeling.
T. E. Lawrence
A thick headcloth forms a good protection against the sun, and if you wear a hat your best Arab friends will be ashamed of you in public.
T. E. Lawrence
The desert is an ocean in which no oar is dipped.
T. E. Lawrence
I wrote my will across the sky, in stars
T. E. Lawrence
The literature of disease is more interesting to me than all the healthy books.
T. E. Lawrence
They taught me that no man could be their leader except he ate the ranks' food, wore their clothes, lived level with them, and yet appeared better in himself.
T. E. Lawrence
The Beduin could not look for God within him: he was too sure that he was within God.
T. E. Lawrence
I had dropped one form and not taken on the other, and was become like Mohammed's coffin in our legend, with a resultant feeling of intense loneliness in life, and a contempt, not for other men, but for all they do.
T. E. Lawrence
I haven't got a heart: only the former site of one, with a monument there to say that it has been removed and the area it occupied turned into a public garden, in pursuance of the slum-clearance scheme.
T. E. Lawrence
To me an unnecessary action, or shot, or casualty, was not only waste but sin.
T. E. Lawrence
He feared his maturity as it grew upon him with its ripe thought, its skill, its finished art yet which lacked the poetry of boyhood to make living a full end of life.
T. E. Lawrence
