Lawrence Durrell Quotes

In Her, As An Alexandrian, Licence Was In A Curious Way A Form Of Self-abnegation, A Travesty Of Freedom; And If I Saw Her As An Exemplar Of The City It Was Not Of Alexandria, Or Plotinus That I Was Forced To Think, But Of The Sad Thirtieth Child Of Valentinus Who Fell, 'not Like Lucifer By Rebelling Against God, But By Desiring Too Ardently To Be United To Him'.*
