More quotes by T. H. White
I think I ought to have some eddication,said the Wart, I can't think of anything to do.
T. H. White
[Kay] was not at all an unpleasant person really, but clever, quick, proud, passionate and ambitious. He was one of those people who would be neither a follower nor a leader, but only an aspiring heart, impatient in the failing body which imprisoned it.
T. H. White
You could not give up a human heart as you could give up drinking. The drink was yours, and you could give it up: but your lover’s soul was not your own: it was not at your disposal you had a duty towards it.
T. H. White

Learn why the world wags and what wags it. That is the only thing which the mind can never exhaust, never alienate, never be tortured by, never fear or distrust, and never dream of regretting. Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.
T. H. White
I am an anarchist, like any other sensible person. ~ Merlyn

You think education is something to be done when all else fails?
T. H. White
Education is experience, and the essence of experience is self-reliance.
T. H. White
The destiny of man is to unite, not to divide.
T. H. White
Wrongs have to be redressed by reason, not by force.
T. H. White
Learning is the only thing for you. Look what a lot of things there are to learn.
T. H. White
He did not like the grown-ups who talked down to him, but the ones who went on talking in their usual way, leaving him to leap along in their wake, jumping at meanings, guessing, clutching at known words, and chuckling at complicated jokes as they suddenly dawned. He had the glee of the porpoise then, pouring and leaping through strange seas.
T. H. White
It seems, in tragedy, that innocence is not enough.
T. H. White
Perhaps we all give the best of our hearts uncritically--to those who hardly think about us in return.
T. H. White
The Destiny of Man is to unite, not to divide. If you keep on dividing you end up as a collection of monkeys throwing nuts at each other out of separate trees.
T. H. White
