Additional quotes by Doris Lessing

I do not think writers ought ever to sit down and think they must write about some cause, or theme... If they write about their own experiences, something true is going to emerge.

The boulder is the truth that the great men know by instinct, and the mountain is the stupidity of mankind.

We are all of us, to some degree or another, brainwashed by the society we live in. We are able to see this when we travel to another country, and are able to catch a glimpse of our own country with foreign eyes.. the best we can hope for is that a kindly friend from another culture will enable us to look at our culture with dispassionate eyes.

So love is rest? The cosy corner? The little nook? Sometimes it ought to be. Sometimes it is. - Doris Lessing
