Quotations by Henry Miller

1. All growth is a leap in the dark, a spontaneous unpremeditated act without the benefit of experience.


2. Develop interest in life as you see it; in people, things, literature, music - the world is so rich, simply throbbing with rich treasures, beautiful souls and interesting people. Forget yourself.

3. Every moment is a golden one for him who has the vision to recognize it as such.
Henry Miller

4. Living apart and at peace with myself, I came to realize more vividly the meaning of the doctrine of acceptance. To refrain from giving advice, to refrain from meddling in the affairs of others, to refrain, even though the motives be the highest, from tampering with another's way of life - so simple, yet so difficult for an active spirit. Hands off!


5. One's destination is never a place but rather a new way of looking at things.

6. Our own physical body possesses a wisdom which we who inhabit the body lack.

7. What does it matter how one comes by the truth so long as one pounces upon it and lives by it?

8. To live without killing is a thought which could electrify the world, if men were only capable of staying awake long enough to let the idea soak in.
Henry Miller, The Henry Miller Reader (1959), "Reunion in Brooklyn"

9. When one is trying to do something beyond his known powers it is useless to seek the approval of friends. Friends are at their best in moments of defeat.

10 . 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.
