Truth Quote by George Eliot — Inspiring Words on Life, Love & Wisdom

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.”

“To be a poet is to have a soul so quick to discern, that no shade of quality escapes it, and so quick to feel, that discernment is but a hand playing with finely-ordered variety on the chords of emotion--a soul in which knowledge passes instantaneously into feeling, and feeling flashes back as a new organ of knowledge.”

“Poor fellow! I think he is in love with you.'”

“O may I join the choir invisible”

“Truth has rough flavours if we bite it through.”

“What do we live for, if it is not to make life less difficult for each other?”

“We should write as we dream; we should even try and write, we should all do it for ourselves, it’s very healthy, because it’s the only place where we never lie. At night we don’t lie. Now if we think that our whole lives are built on lying-they are strange buildings-we should try and write as our dreams teach us; shamelessly, fearlessly, and by facing what is inside very human being-sheer violence, disgust, terror, shit, invention, poetry. In our dreams we are criminals; we kill, and we kill with a lot of enjoyment. But we are also the happiest people on earth; we make love as we never make love in life.”

“Looking for Truth is not some kind of spazzy free-for-all, not even during this, the great age of the spazzy free-for-all.”

“True art is thoughtful, emotional examination of how human themes impact the overall experience of existing. The rest is kitsch.”

“Ah, it is impossible.”

“And just when I though things were starting to get better, everything had gone wrong again.”
