More quotes by Graham Greene
God save us always,' I said 'from the innocent and the good.
Graham Greene
I don't care a damn about men who are loyal to the people who pay them, to organizations...I don't think even my country means all that much. There are many countries in our blood, aren't there, but only one person. Would the world be in the mess it is if we were loyal to love and not to countries?
Graham Greene
Our worst enemies here are not the ignorant and simple, however cruel our worst enemies are the intelligent and corrupt
Graham Greene
Ordinary life goes on--that has saved many a man's reason.

Graham Greene
He was impregnably armored by his good intentions and his ignorance.
Graham Greene
American bankers believe in the personal touch the teller conveys a sense that he happens to be there accidentally and he is overjoyed at the lucky chance of the encounter.
Graham Greene
Communism, my friend, is more than Marxism, just as Catholicism is more than the Roman Curia. There is a mystique as well as a politick. Catholics and Communists have committed great crimes, but at least they have not stood aside, like an established society, and been indifferent. I would rather have blood on my hands than water like Pilate.
Graham Greene
They haven't left us much to believe, have they? — even disbelief. I can't believe in anything bigger than a home, or anything vaguer than a human being.
Graham Greene
It is the storytellers task to elicit sympathy and a measure of understanding for those who lie outside the boundaries of State approval.
Graham Greene
