Quotes

I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you've got to say, and say it hot.
Love is the flower of life, and blossoms unexpectedly and without law, and must be plucked where it is found, and enjoyed for the brief hour of its duration.
.#DHLawrence was born #OTD 1885. Thought we'd celebrate in the galleries of The London Library Reading Room with his first works (these published by Duckworth Press in 1911-13) that launched his career.
