Philip Larkin
“One of the quainter quirks of life is that we shall never know who dies on the same day as we do ourselves.”
Philip Larkin, Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica

Philip Larkin
“Everyone should be forcibly transplanted to another continent from their family at the age of three.”
Philip Larkin, Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica

Philip Larkin
“There is bad in all good authors: what a pity the converse isn't true!”
Philip Larkin, Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica

Philip Larkin
“They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.”
Philip Larkin, High Windows

Philip Larkin
“I'm terrified of the thought of time passing (or whatever is meant by that phrase) whether I 'do' anything or not. In a way I may believe, deep down, that doing nothing acts as a brake on 'time's - it doesn't of course. It merely adds the torment of having done nothing, when the time comes when it really doesn't matter if you've done anything or not.”
Philip Larkin, Philip Larkin: Letters to Monica
