Julian Hawthorne Quotes

Julian Hawthorne quote from classy quote

After breakfast I spent an hour cleaning my revolver and trying my skill at a target. Jane shook her head, probably thinking that bullets were vain against demonic powers. But Perdita was hugely delighted with the shining little instrument and wanted it for a plaything; women of all ages will play with death! (Absolute Evil)

~ Julian Hawthorne

Probably our lives are full of symbols which only an unacknowledged sense perceives. Spiritual events assume a material guise, in accordance with some creative principle, but do not insist on recognition. (Absolute Evil)

~ Julian Hawthorne

Julian Hawthorne Spirituality Symbols

It did not occur to me that absence of human companionship does not assure solitude. It may, on the contrary, plunge one into an environment compared with which New York or London would appear deserts. For we take memory and imagination with us. The seabirds that scream overhead or waddle along the margins of the surf; the grotesque forms of twisted cedars; the rustle of sea-grass in the wind; the interminable percussion of the breakers; the dead infinity of the sand itself - there can be no solitude, in the sense of freedom from disturbances of thought, in the presence of such things. They draw us back into the maelstrom. (Absolute Evil)

~ Julian Hawthorne

Nature seems to welcome defiance of conventions, and to say, with a smile, 'So, the truant has come back again!' (Absolute Evil)

Children, brought up naturally and in freedom, not only have imagination, but live in a world of imagination more real to them than our reality. (Absolute Evil)

...the natures of solitary people are apt to have more unmapped country in them than worldly folk imagine. They see and think and do things peculiar to themselves, and one may turn up buried treasure in them at any moment. (Absolute Evil)

~ Julian Hawthorne

Julian Hawthorne Solitary Solitude

States of the atmosphere pass into us as water through the meshes of a sieve, and storms occur in us before they break upon the world without, creating restless sensations. (Absolute Evil)

Since childhood, I had always been affected by the changes of the moon, sometimes very much so. As the light of the satellite fell on my face my mind cleared, and I knew what was to be done. (Absolute Evil)
