So long as you don't feel life's paltry and a miserable business, the rest doesn't matter, happiness or unhappiness.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Men always do leave off really thinking, when the last bit of wild animal dies in them.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The soul is a very perfect judge of her own motions, if your mind doesn't dictate to her.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The human being is a most curious creature. He thinks he has got one soul, and he has got dozens.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Sentimentalism is the working off on yourself of feelings you haven't really got.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Having achieved and accomplished love... man... has become himself, his tale is told.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
California is a queer place in a way, it has turned its back on the world, and looks into the void Pacific. It is absolutely selfish, very empty, but not false, and at least, not full of false effort.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The novel is the highest form of human expression so far attained. Why? Because it is so incapable of the absolute.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
There is no such thing as liberty. You only change one sort of domination for another. All we can do is to choose our master.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The day of the absolute is over, and we're in for the strange gods once more.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
I shall be glad when you have strangled the invincible respectability that dogs your steps.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
It is so much more difficult to live with one's body than with one's soul. One's body is so much more exacting: what it won't have it won't have, and nothing can make bitter into sweet.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
One can no longer live with people: it is too hideous and nauseating. Owners and owned, they are like the two sides of a ghastly disease.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
One sheds one's sicknesses in books - repeats and presents again one's emotions, to be master of them.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The mind can assert anything and pretend it has proved it. My beliefs I test on my body, on my intuitional consciousness, and when I get a response there, then I accept.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The one woman who never gives herself is your free woman, who is always giving herself.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The refined punishments of the spiritual mode are usually much more indecent and dangerous than a good smack.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The war is dreadful. It is the business of the artist to follow it home to the heart of the individual fighters - not to talk in armies and nations and numbers - but to track it home.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The Moon! Artemis! the great goddess of the splendid past of men! Are you going to tell me she is a dead lump?
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Do not allow to slip away from you freedoms the people who came before you won with such hard knocks.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Consciousness is an end in itself. We torture ourselves getting somewhere, and when we get there it is nowhere, for there is nowhere to get to.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
My God, these folks don't know how to love - that's why they love so easily.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
I hold that the parentheses are by far the most important parts of a non-business letter.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
The human consciousness is really homogeneous. There is no complete forgetting, even in death.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
I believe that a man is converted when first he hears the low, vast murmur of life, of human life, troubling his hitherto unconscious self.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
I cannot cure myself of that most woeful of youth's follies - thinking that those who care about us will care for the things that mean much to us.
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Oh literature, oh the glorious Art, how it preys upon the marrow in our bones. It scoops the stuffing out of us, and chucks us aside. Alas!
Quote by -D.H. Lawrence
Since obscenity is the truth of our passion today, it is the only stuff of art - or almost the only stuff.
