Letter "E" » Edward Dahlberg Quotes
«Hardly a book of human worth, be it heaven's own secret, is honestly placed before the reader; it is either shunned, given a Periclean funeral oration in a hundred and fifty words, or interred in the potter's field of the newspapers back pages.»
«So much of our lives is given over to the consideration of our imperfections that there is no time to improve our imaginary virtues. The truth is we only perfect our vices, and man is a worse creature when he dies than he was when he was born.»
«Everything ultimately fails, for we die, and that is either the penultimate failure or our most enigmatical achievement.»
«We cannot live, suffer or die for somebody else, for suffering is too precious to be shared.»
«Though man is the only beast that can write, he has small reason to be proud of it. When he utters something that is wise it is nothing that the river horse does not know, and most of his creations are the result of accident.»
Author: Edward Dahlberg (Novelist) | Keywords: river horse, utters
«We are a most solitary people, and we live, repelled by one another, in the gray, outcast cities of Cain.»
Author: Edward Dahlberg (Novelist) | Keywords: outcast, repelled
«What has a writer to be bombastic about? Whatever good a man may write is the consequence of accident, luck, or surprise, and nobody is more surprised than an honest writer when he makes a good phrase or says something truthful.»
«We can only write well about our sins because it is too difficult to recall a virtuous act or even whether it was the result of good or evil motives.»
«One of the weaknesses in the cooperative is that it has never been sufficiently leavened by the imagination. This is a quick-silver faculty, and likely to be a cause of worry to any collective settlement.»
«The machine has had a pernicious effect upon virtue, pity, and love, and young men used to machines which induce inertia, and fear, are near impotent.»
