More quotes by Graham Greene
He was like a child with haemophilia: every contact drew blood.
Graham Greene
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
Lust is not the worst thing. It is because any day, any time, lust may turn into love that we have to avoid it. And when we love our sin then we are damned indeed.
Graham Greene
At one with the One, it didn't mean a thing besides a glass of Guinness on a sunny day.
Graham Greene
A brain is only capable of what it could conceive, andit couldnt concieve what it hasnt experienced
Graham Greene
My two fingers on a typewriter have never connected with my brain. My hand on a pen does. A fountain pen, of course. Ball-point pens are only good for filling out forms on a plane.
Graham Greene
He couldn't tell that this was one of those occasions a man never forgets: a small cicatrice had been made on the memory, a wound that would ache whenever certain things combined - the taste of gin at mid-day, the smell of flowers under a balcony, the clang of corrugated iron, an ugly bird flopping from perch to perch.
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
What happens if you drop all the things that make you I?
Graham Greene
People who like quotes love meaningless generalizations
Graham Greene
You don't bless what you love...It's when you want to love and you can't manage it. You stretch out your hands and you say God forgive me that I can't love but bless this thing anyway...We have to bless what we hate...It would be better to love, but that's not always possible.
Graham Greene
The trouble is I don't believe my unbelief.
Graham Greene
Media is just a word that has come to mean bad journalism.
Graham Greene
Would the world be in the mess it is if we were loyal to love and not to countries?
Graham Greene
He was impregnably armored by his good intentions and his ignorance.
Graham Greene
For an artist to think in terms of success is like a priest trying to think in terms of success.
Graham Greene
Its typical of Mexico, of the whole human race perhaps violence in favour of an ideal and then the ideal lost but the violence just going on.
Graham Greene
There is a point of no return, unremarked at the time, in most lives.
Graham Greene
It is a great danger for everyone when what is shocking changes.
Graham Greene
No building was safe from the furniture, the pictures, the human beings that it would presently contain.
Graham Greene
