Quotes by John Cowper Powys
If by the time we're sixty we haven't learned what a knot of paradox and contradiction life is, and how exquisitely the good and the bad are mingled in every action we take, and what a compromising hostess Our Lady of Truth is, we haven't grown old to much purpose. |
|
Our rulers at the present day, with their machines and their preachers, are all occupied in putting into our heads the preposterous notion that activity rather than contemplation is the object of life. |
|
Most of the pathetic scenes in almost everybody's life are scenes unnoted by anyone and totally disregarded by the person in question. |
|
Man is the animal who weeps and laughs — ''and writes''. If the first Prometheus brought fire from heaven in a fennel-stalk the last will take it back — ''in a book''. |
