Graham Greene
So it always is: when you escape to a desert the silence shouts in your ear.
Graham Greene
I say that home is where there is a chair and a glass.
Graham Greene
Lies had deserted me, and I felt as lonely as though they had been my only friends.
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

Graham Greene
Media is just a word that has come to mean bad journalism.
Graham Greene
What have we all got to expect that we allow ourselves to be so lined with disappointment?
Graham Greene
You needn't be so scared. Love doesn't end. Just because we don't see each other.
Graham Greene
If two people loved, they slept together it was a mathematical formula, tested and proved by human experience.
Graham Greene
Yesterday I went home with him and we did the usual things. I haven't the nerve to put them down, but I'd like to, because now when I'm writing it's already tomorrow and I'm afraid of getting to the end of yesterday. As long as I go on writing, yesterday is today and we are still together
Graham Greene
O God, You've done enough, You've robbed me of enough, I'm too tired and old to learn to love, leave me alone for ever.
Graham Greene
...every monologue sooner or later becomes a discussion.
Graham Greene
