Additional quotes by E. M. Forster

The contest lay not between love and duty. Perhaps there never is such a contest. It lay between the real and the pretended, and Lucy's first aim was to defeat herself.

I am the means and not the end. I am the food and not the life. Stand by yourself, as that boy has stood. I cannot save you. For poetry is a spirit; and they that would worship it must worship in spirit and in truth.

...though nothing is damaged, everything is changed.

The world is certainly full of beautiful things, if only I could come across them. - E. M. Forster
