Quotes by James Joyce

Mistakes are the portals of discovery.

Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize.

Your battles inspired me - not the obvious material battles but those that were fought and won behind your forehead.

Better pass boldly into that other world, in the full glory of some passion, than fade and wither dismally with age.

I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.

A man's errors are his portals of discovery.
