Remorse is impotence, it will sin again. Only repentance is strong, it can end everything  (Henry Miller Quotes) The artist is the opposite of the politically minded individual, the opposite of the reformer, the opposite of the idealist. The artist does not tinker with the universe, he recreates it out of his own experience and understanding of life  (Henry Miller Quotes) Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack. We give it orders which make no sense  (Henry Miller Quotes) The man who looks for security, even in the mind, is like a man who would chop off his limbs in order to have artificial ones which will give him no pain or trouble  (Henry Miller Quotes) The study of crime begins with the knowledge of oneself. All that you despise, all that you loathe, all that you reject, all that you condemn and seek to convert by punishment springs from you  (Henry Miller Quotes) I soon found out you can't change the world. The best you can do is to learn to live with it  (Henry Miller Quotes) No matter how vast, how total, the failure of man here on Earth, the work of man will be resumed elsewhere. War leaders talk of resuming operations on this front and that, but man's front embraces the whole universe  (Henry Miller Quotes) The great work must inevitably be obscure, except to the very few, to those who like the author himself are initiated into the mysteries. Communication then is secondary: it is perpetuation which is important. For this only one good reader is necessary  (Henry Miller Quotes) The imperfections of a man, his frailties, his faults, are just as important as his virtues. You can't separate them. They're wedded  (Henry Miller Quotes) I'd rather sit down and write a letter than call someone up. I hate the telephone  (Henry Miller Quotes) We live in the mind, in ideas, in fragments. We no longer drink in the wild outer music of the streets - we remember only  (Henry Miller Quotes) All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without benefit of experience  (Henry Miller Quotes) Back of every creation, supporting it like an arch, is faith. Enthusiasm is nothing: it comes and goes. But if one believes, then miracles occur  (Henry Miller Quotes) Develop an interest in life as you see it; the people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself  (Henry Miller Quotes) Imagination is the voice of daring. If there is anything Godlike about God it is that. He dared to imagine everything  (Henry Miller Quotes) In the attempt to defeat death man has been inevitably obliged to defeat life, for the two are inextricably related. Life moves on to death, and to deny one is to deny the other  (Henry Miller Quotes) In this age, which believes that there is a short cut to everything, the greatest lesson to be learned is that the most difficult way is, in the long run, the easiest  (Henry Miller Quotes) Los Angeles gives one the feeling of the future more strongly than any city I know of. A bad future, too, like something out of Fritz Lang's feeble imagination  (Henry Miller Quotes) No man is great enough or wise enough for any of us to surrender our destiny to. The only way in which anyone can lead us is to restore to us the belief in our own guidance  (Henry Miller Quotes) The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware  (Henry Miller Quotes) The legal system is often a mystery, and we, its priests, preside over rituals baffling to everyday citizens  (Henry Miller Quotes) The one thing we can never get enough of is love. And the one thing we never give enough is love  (Henry Miller Quotes) The only thing we never get enough of is love; and the only thing we never give enough of is love  (Henry Miller Quotes) The Teutons have been singing the swan song ever since they entered the ranks of history. They have always confounded truth with death  (Henry Miller Quotes) True strength lies in submission which permits one to dedicate his life, through devotion, to something beyond himself  (Henry Miller Quotes) When one is trying to do something beyond his known powers it is useless to seek the approval of friends. Friends are at their best in moments of defeat  (Henry Miller Quotes) Why are we so full of restraint? Why do we not give in all directions? Is it fear of losing ourselves? Until we do lose ourselves there is no hope of finding ourselves  (Henry Miller Quotes) An artist is always alone - if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness  (Henry Miller Quotes) Analysis brings no curative powers in its train; it merely makes us conscious of the existence of an evil, which, oddly enough, is consciousness  (Henry Miller Quotes) And what is the potential man, after all? Is he not the sum of all that is human? Divine, in other words?  (Henry Miller Quotes)
