I'm a writer first and a woman...

I'm a writer first and a woman after.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Would you not like to try all ...

Would you not like to try all sorts of lives - one is so very small - but that is the satisfaction of writing - one can impersonate so many people.

I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Bless you, my darling, and remember you are always in the heart - oh tucked so close there is no chance of escape - of your sister.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

If only one could tell true lo...

If only one could tell true love from false love as one can tell mushrooms from toadstools.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

All the wild sweetness of the ...

All the wild sweetness of the flower
Tangled against the wall.
It was that magic, silent hour....
The branches grew so tall
They twined themselves into a bower.
The sun shown ... and the fall

Of yellow blossom on the grass!
You feel that golden rain?
Both of you could not hold, alas,
(both of you tried, in vain)
A memory, stranger. So I pass....
It will not come again.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

The fields are snowbound no lo...

The fields are snowbound no longer;
There are little blue lakes and flags of tenderest green.
The snow has been caught up into the sky-
So many white clouds-and the blue of the sky is cold.
Now the sun walks in the forest,
He touches the bows and stems with his golden fingers;
They shiver, and wake from slumber.
Over the barren branches he shakes his yellow curls.
Yet is the forest full of the sound of tears....
A wind dances over the fields.
Shrill and clear the sound

Everything in life that we really accept undergoes a change.

I love the rain. I want the feeling of it on my face.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Whenever I prepare for a journ...

Whenever I prepare for a journey I prepare as though for death. Should I never return, all is in order.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

The mind I love must have wild...

The mind I love must have wild places, a tangled orchard where dark damsons drop in the heavy grass, an overgrown little wood, the chance of a snake or two, a pool that nobody's fathomed the depth of, and paths threaded with flowers planted by the mind.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

I saw myself driving through Eternity in a timeless taxi.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Life never become a habit to me. It's always a marvel.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

I want, by understanding mysel...

I want, by understanding myself, to understand others. I want to be all that I am capable of becoming.... This all sounds very strenuous and serious. But now that I have wrestled with it, it's no longer so. I feel happy- deep down. All is well.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Tidied all my papers. Tore up ...

Tidied all my papers. Tore up and ruthlessly destroyed much. This is always a great satisfaction.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

When we begin to take our fail...

When we begin to take our failures non-seriously, it means we are ceasing to be afraid of them.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Regret is an appalling waste of energy, and no one who intends to be a writer can afford to indulge in it.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

I am poor - obscure - just eighteen years of age - with a rapacious appetite for everything and principles as light as my purse.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

Oh, how quickly things changed...

Oh, how quickly things changed! Why didn't happiness last for ever? For ever wasn't a bit too long.

Katherine Mansfield 149 quotes

The late evening is the time of times. Then with that unearthly beauty before one it is not hard to realise how far one has to go. To write something that will be worthy of that rising moon, that pale light.
