Text Quotes
In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock! (Graham Greene Quotes)
It is impossible to go through life without trust: that is to be imprisoned in the worst cell of all, oneself (Graham Greene Quotes)
People talk about the courage of condemned men walking to the place of execution: sometimes it needs as much courage to walk with any kind of bearing towards another person's habitual misery (Graham Greene Quotes)
Sweet are the thoughts that savor of content: the quiet mind is richer than a crown (Graham Greene Quotes)
A movie is not a book. If the source material is a book, you cannot be too respectful of the book. All you owe to the book is the spirit (Graham Greene Quotes)
A petty reason perhaps why novelists more and more try to keep a distance from journalists is that novelists are trying to write the truth and journalists are trying to write fiction (Graham Greene Quotes)
Innocence always calls mutely for protection when we would be so much wiser to guard ourselves against it: innocence is like a dumb leper who has lost his bell, wandering the world, meaning no harm (Graham Greene Quotes)
Innocence is like a dumb leper who has lost his bell, wandering the world, meaning no harm (Graham Greene Quotes)
Unhappiness in a child accumulates because he sees no end to the dark tunnel. The thirteen weeks of a term might just as well be thirteen years (Graham Greene Quotes)
Writing is a form of therapy; sometimes I wonder how all those who do not write, compose or paint can manage to escape the madness, melancholia, the panic and fear which is inherent in a human situation (Graham Greene Quotes)
The economy of a novelist is a little like that of a careful housewife who is unwilling to throw away anything that might perhaps serve its turn (Graham Greene Quotes)
Sometimes I see myself reflected too closely in other men for comfort, and then I have an enormous wish to believe in the saints, in heroic virtue (Graham Greene Quotes)
There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in (Graham Greene Quotes)
I wish sometimes you had a few bad motives, you might understand a little more about human beings (Graham Greene Quotes)
So it always is: when you escape to a desert the silence shouts in your ear (Graham Greene Quotes)
Christmas it seems to me is a necessary festival; we require a season when we can regret all the flaws in our human relationships: it is the feast of failure, sad but consoling (Graham Greene Quotes)
From childhood I had never believed in permanence, and yet I had longed for it. Always I was afraid of losing happiness. This month, next year... death was the only absolute value in my world. Lose life and one would lose nothing again forever (Graham Greene Quotes)
I could never have been a pacifist. To kill a man was surely to grant him an immeasurable benefit. Oh yes, people always, everywhere, loved their enemies. It was their friends they preserved for pain and vacuity (Graham Greene Quotes)
She had lost all our memories for ever, and it was as though by dying she had robbed me of part of myself. I was losing my individuality. It was the first stage of my own death, the memories dropping off like gangrened limbs (Graham Greene Quotes)
Eternity is said not to be an extension of time but an absence of time, and sometimes it seemed to me that her abandonment touched that strange mathematical point of endlessness, a point with no width, occupying no space (Graham Greene Quotes)
One has no talent. I have no talent. It’s just a question of working, of being willing to put in the time (Graham Greene Quotes)
The world was in her heart already, like the small spot of decay in a fruit (Graham Greene Quotes)
It is the same in life: sometimes it is more difficult to make a scene than to die (Graham Greene Quotes)
He gave her a bright fake smile; so much of life was a putting off of unhappiness for another time. Nothing was ever lost by delay. He had a dim idea that perhaps if one delayed long enough, things were taken out of one’s hands altogether by death (Graham Greene Quotes)
Of two hearts one is always warm and one is always cold: the cold heart is more precious than diamonds: the warm heart has no value and is thrown away (Graham Greene Quotes)
I had to touch you with my hands, I had to taste you with my tongue; one can’t love and do nothing (Graham Greene Quotes)
In the taxi I let my hand lie on her leg like a promise, but I had no intention of keeping my promise (Graham Greene Quotes)
Insecurity is the worst sense that lovers feel; sometimes the most humdrum desireless marriage seems better. Insecurity twists meanings and poisons trust (Graham Greene Quotes)
I couldn’t help wondering, is my husband so unattractive that no woman has ever wanted him? Except me, of course. I must have wanted him, in a way, once, but I’ve forgotten why, and I was too young to know what I was choosing (Graham Greene Quotes)
And there, in that phrase, the bitterness leaks again out of my pen. What a dull lifeless quality this bitterness is. If I could I would write with love, but if I could write with love I would be another man; I would never have lost love (Graham Greene Quotes)
