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.

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.

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

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

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

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

She looked at him, and oh, the...

She looked at him, and oh, the weariness to her, of the effort to understand another language, the weariness of hearing him, attending to him, making out who he was, as he stood there fair-bearded and alien, looking at her. She knew something of him, of his eyes. But she could not grasp him. She closed her eyes.

A museum is not a first-hand contact: it is an illustrated lecture. And what one wants is the actual vital touch.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

And still I look for the men w...

And still I look for the men who will dare to be
roses of England
wild roses of England
men who are wild roses of England
with metal thorns, beware!
but still more brave and still more rare
the courage of rosiness in a cabbage world
fragrance of roses in a stale stink of lies
rose-leaves to bewilder the clever fools
and rose-briars to strangle the machine.

Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen sat one morning in the window-bay of their father's house in Beldover, working and talking.

The Brangwens had lived for generations on the Marsh Farm, in the meadows where the Erewash twisted sluggishly through alder trees, separating Derbyshire from Nottinghamshire.

Now the only decent way to get something done is to get it done by somebody who quite likes doing it.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

The feelings I don't have I do...

The feelings I don't have I don't have. The feelings I don't have, I won't say I have. The felings you say you have, you don't have. The feelings you would like us both to have, we neither of us have.

When I read Shakespeare I am struck with wonder that such trivial people should muse and thunder in such lovely language.

A little morphine in all the air. It would be wonderfully refreshing for everyone.

So as long as you can forget y...

So as long as you can forget your body you are happy and the moment you begin to be aware of your body, you are wretched. So if civilization is any good, it has to help us forget our bodies, and then time passes happily without our knowing it. Help us get rid of our bodies altogether.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

You're spending your life with...

You're spending your life without renewing it. You've got to be amused, properly healthily amused. You're spending your vitality without making any. Can't go on you know. Depression! Avoid depression!

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

It seems to me a purely lyric ...

It seems to me a purely lyric poet gives himself, right down to his sex, to his mood, utterly and abandonedly, whirls himself roundtill he spontaneously combusts into verse. He has nothing that goes on, no passion, only a few intense moods, separate like odd stars, and when each has burned away, he must die.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

I love trying things and discovering how I hate them.

David Herbert Lawrence 137 quotes

Lies About Love We are all lia...

Lies About Love We are all liars, because The truth of yesterday becomes a lie tomorrow, Whereas letters are fixed, and we live by the letter of truth. The love I feel for my friend, this year, is different from the love I felt last year. If it were not so, it would be a lie. Yet we reiterate love! love! love! as if it were a coin with fixed value instead of a flower that dies, and opens a different bud.
