Text Quotes
Literary criticism can be no more than a reasoned account of the feeling produced upon the critic by the book he is criticising  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Men are free when they belong to a living, organic, believing community, active in fulfilling some unfulfilled, perhaps unrealized purpose  (D H Lawrence Quotes) California is a queer place in a way, it has turned its back on the world, and looks into the void Pacific. It is absolutely selfish, very empty, but not false, and at least, not full of false effort  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Creation destroys as it goes, throws down one tree for the rise of another. But ideal mankind would abolish death, multiply itself million upon million, rear up city upon city, save every parasite alive, until the accumulation of mere existence is swollen to a horror  (D H Lawrence Quotes) My whole working philosophy is that the only stable happiness for mankind is that it shall live married in blessed union to woman-kind - intimacy, physical and psychical between a man and his wife. I wish to add that my state of bliss is by no means perfect  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The American grips himself, at the very sources of his consciousness, in a grip of care: and then, to so much of the rest of life, is indifferent. Whereas, the European hasn’t got so much care in him, so he cares much more for life and living  (D H Lawrence Quotes) And what’s romance? Usually, a nice little tale where you have everything As You Like It, where rain never wets your jacket and gnats never bite your nose and it’s always daisy-time  (D H Lawrence Quotes) America is neither free nor brave, but a land of tight, iron-clanking little wills, everybody trying to put it over everybody else, and a land of men absolutely devoid of the real courage of trust, trust in life’s sacred spontaneity. They can’t trust life until they can control it  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Every civilization when it loses its inner vision and its cleaner energy, falls into a new sort of sordidness, more vast and more stupendous than the old savage sort. An Augean stable of metallic filth  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The deadly Hydra now is the hydra of Equality. Liberty, Equality and Fraternity is the three-fanged serpent  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Life and love are life and love, a bunch of violets is a bunch of violets, and to drag in the idea of a point is to ruin everything. Live and let live, love and let love, flower and fade, and follow the natural curve, which flows on, pointless  (D H Lawrence Quotes) You’ll never succeed in idealizing hard work. Before you can dig mother earth you’ve got to take off your ideal jacket. The harder a man works, at brute labor, the thinner becomes his idealism, the darker his mind  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Things men have made with wakened hands, and put soft life into are awake through years with transferred touch, and go on glowing for long years. And for this reason, some old things are lovely warm still with the life of forgotten men who made them  (D H Lawrence Quotes) But that is how men are! Ungrateful and never satisfied. When you don’t have them they hate you because you won’t; and when you do have them they hate you again, for some other reason. Or for no reason at all, except that they are discontented children, and can’t be satisfied whatever they get, let a woman do what she may  (D H Lawrence Quotes) All hopes of eternity and all gain from the past he would have given to have her there, to be wrapped warm with him in one blanket, and sleep, only sleep. It seemed the sleep with the woman in his arms was the only necessity  (D H Lawrence Quotes) For my part, I prefer my heart to be broken. It is so lovely, dawn-kaleidoscopic within the crack  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Sleep is still most perfect, in spite of hygienists, when it is shared with a beloved. The warmth, the security and peace of soul, the utter comfort from the touch of the other, knits the sleep, so that it takes the body and soul completely in its healing  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The autumn always gets me badly, as it breaks into colours. I want to go south, where there is no autumn, where the cold doesn’t crouch over one like a snow-leopard waiting to pounce  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Another head - and a black alpaca jacket and a serviette this time - to tell us coffee is ready. Not before it is time, too  (D H Lawrence Quotes) He reflected on the decay of mankind-the decline of the human race into folly and weakness and rottenness. ‘Be a good animal, true to your animal instinct’ was his motto  (D H Lawrence Quotes) She wished some help would come from outside. But in the whole world there was no help. Society was terrible because it was insane. Civilized society is insane. Money and so-called love are its two great manias; money a long way first. The individual asserts himself in his disconnected insanity in these two modes: money and love  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Art is a form of supremely delicate awareness... meaning at-oneness, the state of being at one with the object  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Whales in mid-ocean, suspended in the waves of the sea great heaven of whales in the waters, old hierarchies. And enormous mother whales lie dreaming suckling their whale-tender young and dreaming with strange whale eyes wide open in the waters of the beginning and the end  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Not I, not I, but the wind that blows through me! A fine wind is blowing the new direction of Time  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The acrid scents of autumn, Reminiscent of slinking beasts, make me fear  (D H Lawrence Quotes) For us to go to Italy and to penetrate into Italy is like a most fascinating act of self-discovery  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I have lived among enough painters and around studios to have had all the theories - and how contradictory they are - rammed down my throat. A man has to have a gizzard like an ostrich to digest all the brass-tacks and wire nails of modern art theories  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Don’t talk to me any more about poetry for months -- unless it is other men’s work. I really love verse, even rubbish. But I’m fearfully busy at a novel, and brush all the gossamer of verse off my face  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The Italians are not passionate: passion has deep reserves. They are easily moved, and often affectionate, but they rarely have any abiding passion of any sort  (D H Lawrence Quotes) All this Americanising and mechanising has been for the purpose of overthrowing the past. And now look at America, tangled in her own barbed wire, and mastered by her own machines  (D H Lawrence Quotes)
