The mystery of the evening-sta...

The mystery of the evening-star brilliant in silence and distance between the downward-surging plunge of the sun and the vast, hollow seething of inpouring night. The magnificence of the watchful morning-star, that watches between the night and the day, the gleaming clue to the two opposites.

Not that the Red Indian will ever possess the broad lands of America. At least I presume not. But his ghost will.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

Anyone who is kind to man know...

Anyone who is kind to man knows the fragmentariness of most men, and wants to arrange a society of power in which men fall naturally into a collective wholeness, since they cannot have an individual wholeness. In this collective wholeness they will be fulfilled. But if they make efforts at individual fulfilment, they must fail for they are by nature fragmentary.

Europe is, perhaps, the least worn-out of the continents, because it is the most lived in. A place that is lived in lives.

[U]nless a woman is held, by man, safe within the bounds of belief, she becomes inevitably a destructive force.

My soul is my great asset and my great misfortune.

Most fatal, most hateful of al...

Most fatal, most hateful of all things is bullying.... Sensual bullying of course is fairly easily detected. What is more dangerous is ideal bullying. Bullying people into what is ideally good for them.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

When man has nothing but his w...

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.

A man must keep his earnestness nimble, to escape ridicule.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

When van Gogh paints sunflower...

When van Gogh paints sunflowers, he reveals, or achieves, the vivid relation between himself, as man, and the sunflower, as sunflower, at that quick moment of time. His painting does not represent the sunflower itself. We shall never know what the sunflower itself is. And the camera will visualize the sunflower far more perfectly than van Gogh can.

The history of our era is the nauseating and repulsive history of the crucifixion of the procreative body for the glorification ofthe spirit.

The old ideals are dead as nai...

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.

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.

Every profound new movement ma...

Every profound new movement makes a great swing also backwards to some older, half-forgotten way of consciousness.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

If you believe in your own sex...

If you believe in your own sex, and won't have it done dirt to: they'll down you. It's the one insane taboo left: sex as a naturaland vital thing.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 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.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

And this is the final meaning ...

And this is the final meaning of work: the extension of human consciousness. The lesser meaning of work is the achieving of self-preservation.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

It is not woman who claims the...

It is not woman who claims the highest in man. It is a man's own religious soul that drives him on beyond women, to his supreme activity. For his highest, man is responsible to God alone.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

Gods die with men who have con...

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.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

I am convinced that the majori...

I am convinced that the majority of people to-day have good, generous feelings which they can never know, never experience, because of some fear, some repression. I do not believe that people would be villains, thieves, murderers and sexual criminals if they were freed from legal restraint.
