Letter "H" » Henry Miller Quotes
«One of the reasons why so few of us ever act, instead of react, is because we are continually stifling our deepest impulses.»
«Life has to be given a meaning because of the obvious fact that it has no meaning.»
«Life moves on, whether we act as cowards or heroes. Life has no other discipline to impose, if we would but realize it, than to accept life unquestioningly. Everything we shut our eyes to, everything we run away from, everything we deny, denigrate or despise, serves to defeat us in the end. What seems nasty, painful, evil, can become a source of beauty, joy, and strength, if faced with an open mind. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.»
