Laura Riding quotes about
provision attainment practicals
When ... I comprehended that poetry had no provision in it for ultimate practical attainment of the rightness of work that is truth, but led on ever only to a temporizing less- than-truth ... I stopped.
rejection mind body
Anger is precious because it is an immediate, undeniable clue to what our minds (so much more cautious in rejection and resistance than our bodies) will not tolerate.
degrees consciousness
Poetry brings all possible experience to the same degree: a degree in the consciousness beyond which the consciousness itself cannot go.
equality men relation
Spiritually, the society we have is the society of men with women present only in adjunctive relation to them, not the society of men and women in reciprocal relation. We do not have the society of human beings.
