More quotes by Graham Greene

Graham Greene
One can't love humanity. One can only love people.
Graham Greene
As the end of the what is called the 'sexual life' the only love which has lasted is the love which has everything, every disappointment, every failure and every betrayal, which has accepted even the sad fact that in the end there is no desire so deep as the simple desire for companionship.
Graham Greene
If you have abandoned one faith, do not abandon all faith. There is always an alternative to the faith we lose. Or is it the same faith under another mask?
Graham Greene

Graham Greene
People who like quotes love meaningless generalizations
Graham Greene
You cannot conceive, nor can I, of the appalling strangeness of the mercy of God.
Graham Greene
I couldn't have thought of her more. Even vacancy was crowded with her.
Graham Greene
Life would go out in a 'fraction of a second' (that was the phrase), but all night he had been realizing that time depends on clocks and the passage of light. There were no clocks and the light wouldn't change. Nobody really knew how long a second of pain could be. It might last a whole purgatory--or for ever.
Graham Greene
As long as one suffers one lives.
Graham Greene
It's a good world if you don't weaken.
Graham Greene
I want men to admire me, but that's a trick you learn at school--a movement of the eyes, a tone of voice, a touch of the hand on the shoulder or the head. If they think you admire them, they will admire you because of your good taste, and when they admire you, you have an illusion for a moment that there's something to admire.
Graham Greene
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
If two people loved, they slept together it was a mathematical formula, tested and proved by human experience.
Graham Greene
It is always of interest to know what strikes another human being as remarkable.
Graham Greene
We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to.
Graham Greene
Beauty is like success: we can't love it for long.
Graham Greene
So long as one is happy one can endure any discipline: it was unhappiness that broke down the habits of work.
Graham Greene
Melodrama is one of my working tools and it enables me to obtain effects that would be unobtainable otherwise on the other hand I am not deliberately melodramatic don't get too annoyed if I say that I write in the way that I do because I am what I am.
Graham Greene
Happiness is never really so welcome as changelessness.
