 I can never decide whether my dreams are the result of my thoughts, or my thoughts the result of my dreams.

 I can't bear art that you can walk round and admire. A book should be either a bandit or a rebel or a man in the crowd.

 I can't do with mountains at close quarters -- they are always in the way, and they are so stupid, never moving and never doing anything but obtrude themselves.

 I cannot be a materialist -- but Oh, how is it possible that a God who speaks to all hearts can let Belgravia go laughing to a vicious luxury, and White chapel cursing to a filthy debauchery -- such suffering, such dreadful suffering -- and shall the

 I cannot cure myself of that most woeful of youth's follies--thinking that those who care about us will care for the things that mean much to us.

 I hold that the parentheses are by far the most important parts of a non-business letter.

 I know the greatness of Christianity; it is a past greatness.... I live in 1924, and the Christian venture is done.

 I like to write when I feel spiteful; it's like having a good sneeze

 I never knew how soothing trees are - many trees and patches of open sunlight, and tree-presences - it is almost like having another being

 I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself. A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough without ever having felt sorry for itself.
