Malcolm Lowry Quotes

«Good God, if our civilization were to sober up for a couple of days it'd die of remorse on the third»
«Long for me as I for you, forgetting, what will be inevitable, the long black aftermath of pain.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«If you feel like breaking, think of all the other dreams unfulfilled, the children unseen, the books unwritten, the work never to be done, the last nights together, the countless acres of anguish and the darkened haunted cities: consider the pity war distils and ourselves as creatures of luck, compared with the others who can gain no last moments more.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«It can be regarded as a kind of symphony, or in another way as a kind of opera - or even a horse opera. It is hot music, a poem, a song, a comedy, a farce, and so forth. It is superficial, profound, entertaining, and boring, according to taste. It is a prophecy, a political warning, a cryptogram, a preposterous movie.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«What I have absolutely no sympathy with is the legislator, the man who seeks, for his own profit, to exploit the weaknesses of those who are unable to help themselves and then to fasten some moral superscription upon it. This I loathe so much that I cannot conceivably explain how much it is.»
«The novel can be read simply as a story which you can skip if you want. It can be read as a story you will get more out of if you don't skip.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«War is being declared to-morrow here so perhaps you can understand that I have been working under difficulties, but difficulties negligible compared with what others have to go through.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«Mexico... is the most Christ-awful place in the world to be in any form of distress.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
«Muzzle a dog and he will bark out of the other end.»
Author: Malcolm Lowry
