"I have to act to live."
Author:     Sir Lawrence Olivier Category:     Acting and Actors

"I believe a man is born first unto himself --for the happy developing of himself, while the world is a nursery, and the pretty things are to be snatched for, and pleasant things tasted; some people seem to exist thus right to the end. But most are born again on entering manhood; then they are born to humanity, to a consciousness of all the laughing, and the never-ceasing murmur of pain and sorrow that comes from the terrible multitudes of brothers."
Author:     D. H. Lawrence Category:     Adulthood

"There could be no honor in a sure success, but much might be wrested from a sure defeat."
Author:     Thomas E. Lawrence Category:     Adversity

"Old age is an insult. It's like being smacked."
Author:     Lawrence Durrell Category:     Age and Aging

"We need not feel ashamed of flirting with the zodiac. The zodiac is well worth flirting with."
Author:     D. H. Lawrence Category:     Astrology

"If you don't believe in yourself, then who will believe in you? The next man's way of getting there might not necessarily work for me, so I have to create my own ways of getting there."
Author:     Martin Lawrence Category:     Belief

"After all, the world is not a stage -- not to me: nor a theatre: nor a show-house of any sort. And art, especially novels, are not little theatres where the reader sits aloft and watches... and sighs, commiserates, condones and smiles. That's what you want a book to be: because it leaves you so safe and superior, with your two-dollar ticket to the show. And that's what my books are not and never will be. Whoever reads me will be in the thick of the scrimmage, and if he doesn't like it -- if he wants a safe seat in the audience -- let him read someone else."
Author:     D. H. Lawrence Category:     Books and Reading

"Every civilization when it loses its inner vision and its cleaner energy, falls into a new sort of sordidness, more vast and more stupendous than the old savage sort. An Augean stable of metallic filth."
Author:     D. H. Lawrence Category:     Decadence

"But the effort, the effort! And as the marrow is eaten out of a man's bones and the soul out of his belly, contending with the strange rapacity of savage life, the lower stage of creation, he cannot make the effort any more."
Author:     D. H. Lawrence Category:     Effort

"Don't set compensation as a goal. Find work you like, and the compensation will follow."
Author:     Harding Lawrence Category:     Enjoyment
