Text Quotes
The past. The Golden Age of the past. What a nostalgia we all feel for it. Yet we don’t want it when we get it. Try the South Seas  (D H Lawrence Quotes) A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I always feel as if I stood naked for the fire of Almighty God to go through me--and it’s rather an awful feeling. One has to be so terribly religious to be an artist  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I hate England and its hopelessness. I hate [Arnold] Bennett’s resignation. Tragedy ought really to be a great big kick at misery  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Only this shimmeriness is the real living. The shape is a dead crust. The shimmer is inside really  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The nice clean intimacy which we now so admire between the sexes is sterilizing. It makes neuters. Later on, no deep, magical sex-life is possible  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Why were we driven out of Paradise? Why did we fall into this gnawing disease of unappeasable dissatisfaction? Not because we sinned. Ah, no. All the animals in Paradise enjoyed the sensual passion of coition. Not because we sinned. But because we got sex into our head  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I would like [the working man] to give me back books and newspapers and theories. And I would like to give him back, in return, his old insouciance, and rich, original spontaneity and fullness of life  (D H Lawrence Quotes) An artist is only an ordinary man with a greater potentiality--same stuff, same make up, only more force. And the strong driving force usually finds his weak spot, and he goes cranked, or goes under  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I have a very great fear of love. It is so personal. Let each bird fly with its own wings, and each fish swim its own course.--Morning brings more than love. And I want to be true to the morning  (D H Lawrence Quotes) And this is the final meaning of work: the extension of human consciousness. The lesser meaning of work is the achieving of self-preservation  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Gods die with men who have conceived them. But the god-stuff roars eternally, like the sea, with too vast a sound to be heard  (D H Lawrence Quotes) When man has nothing but his will to assert--even his good-will--it is always bullying. Bolshevism is one sort of bullying, capitalism another: and liberty is a change of chains  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I don’t believe any more in democracy. But I can’t believe in the old sort of aristocracy, either, nor can I wish it back, splendid as it was. What I believe in is the old Homeric aristocracy, when the grandeur was inside a man, and he lived in a simple wooden house  (D H Lawrence Quotes) The old ideals are dead as nails--nothing there. It seems to me there remains only this perfect union with a woman--sort of ultimate marriage--and there isn’t anything else  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Our civilisation cannot afford to let the censor-moron loose. The censor-moron does not really hate anything but the living and growing human consciousness  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Europe is, perhaps, the least worn-out of the continents, because it is the most lived in. A place that is lived in lives  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Brave people add up to an aristocracy. The democracy of thou-shalt-not is bound to be a collection of weak men  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Only the desert has a fascination--to ride alone--in the sun in the forever unpossessed country--away from man. That is a great temptation  (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) Sex is the root of which intuition is the foliage and beauty is the flower  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I am convinced that the air we normally breathe is a kind of water, and men and women are a species of fish.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) I see a redness suddenly come Into the evening’s anxious breast-- ‘Tis the wound of love goes home!  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Since obscenity is the truth of our passion today, it is the only stuff of art -- or almost the only stuff.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) And all the time she felt the reflection of his hopelessness in her. She couldn’t quite, quite love in hoplessness. And he, being hopeless, couldn’t ever love at all.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) It was like something lurking in the darkness within him...There is remained in the darkness, the great pain, tearing him at times, and then being silent.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Tragedy looks to me like man in love with his own defeat. Which is only a sloppy way of being in love with yourself.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Unless one decorates one’s house for oneself alone, best leave it bare, for other people are walleyed.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you’ve got to say, and say it hot.  (D H Lawrence Quotes) Censors are dead men set up to judge between life and death. For no live, sunny man would be a censor, he’d just laugh.  (D H Lawrence Quotes)
