„Kunst ist die Technik der Gefühlsmanipulierung im Verhältnis zur Wirklichkeit.“

David Herbert Lawrence

in: Ch. Caudwell, Studien zu einer sterbenden Kultur

„Unser Zeitalter ist seinem Wesen nach tragisch, also weigern wir uns, es tragisch zu nehmen. Die Katastrophe ist hereingebrochen, wir stehen vor den Trümmern, wir fangen an, neue kleine Gewohnheiten zu bilden, neue kleine Hoffnungen zu hegen. Es ist ein hartes Stück Arbeit: Kein ebener Weg führt in die Zukunft; wir umgehen die Hindernisse jedoch oder klettern über sie hinweg. Wir müssen leben – einerlei, wie viele Himmel eingestürzt sind.“

David Herbert Lawrence buch Lady Chatterley

Lady Chatterley, Kapitel 1
Original engl.: "Ours is essentially a tragic age, so we refuse to take it tragically. The cataclysm has happened, we are among the ruins, we start to build up new little habitats, to have new little hopes. It is rather hard work: there is now no smooth road into the future: but we go round, or scramble over the obstacles. We've got to live, no matter how many skies have fallen." - Lady Chatterley's Lover.

„Ich persönlich bevorzuge mein Herz, wenn es gebrochen ist. Es ist so wunderschön, morgendämmerungskaleidoskopisch in dem Riss.“

David Herbert Lawrence

The feelings you would like us both to have, we
neither of us have.”

Palpitating flames of life,

The gap in the great constellation,
The place where a star used to be”
