Quotes of the Day! – Sons and Lovers by D.H. Lawrence

All of the below quotes are from Sons and Lovers, by D.H. Lawrence. Kicking it off with probably my favorite:

Oh, you make me knit the brows of my very soul and cogitate.

So, in seeking to make him nobler than he could be, she destroyed him.

Nevertheless, the load of anxiety scarcely ever left her heart, lest William should do the wrong thing by himself.

She was only his conscience, not his mate.

She knew that “he was not there,” as she put it. Often, when she had him with her, she looked for him, and could not find him.

Sons and Lovers

Vladimir: Now? … (Joyous.) There you are again … (Indifferent.) There we are again … (Gloomy.) There I am again.

Waiting for Godot

This week at work I smashed my brain against a problem quite a bit and was not able to solve it. For a while I thought I had it solved, and I was all set. Then I told the fellas about my solution and they pointed out that it was a “kluge.” (My mom didn’t know that word – I’m not sure how common it is.)

Sons and Lovers has some great lines – and the one I have above I really love.

Anyhow – have a good weekend everybody!!
