Winifred Holtby Quotes

We are so little, so ignorant, so feeble an infant race crawling on a planet between immensities we haven’t even begun to understand, that really we have no grounds for either congratulation or despair Picture Quote #1

Sorrow and frustration have their power. The world is moved by people with great discontents. Happiness is a drug. It can make men blind and deaf and insensible to reality. There are times when only sorrow can give to sorrow Picture Quote #1

The world, with all its beauty and adventure, its richness and variety, is darkened by cruelty. Death, if it ends the loveliness, the adventure, ends also that. Death balances the picture Picture Quote #1

I like a bit of color myself, I must say. At my time of life, if you wear nothing but black, people might think you were too mean to change frocks between funerals Picture Quote #1

I advise nobody to drown sorrow in cocoa. It is bad for the figure and it does not alleviate the sorrow Picture Quote #1

We’re so busy resigning ourselves to the inevitable that we don’t even ask if it is inevitable. We’ve got to have courage, to take our future into our hands. If the law is oppressive, we must change the law. If tradition is obstructive, we must break tradition. If the system is unjust, we must reform the system Picture Quote #1

The things that one most wants to do are the things that are probably most worth doing Picture Quote #1
