More quotes by Graham Greene
It is impossible to go through life without trust: that is to be imprisoned in the worst cell of all, oneself.
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
Thought's a luxury. Do you think the peasant sits and thinks of God and Democracy when he gets inside his mud hut at night?
Graham Greene
What have we all got to expect that we allow ourselves to be so lined with disappointment?
Graham Greene
I thought I am kissing pain and pain belongs to You as happiness never does. I love You in Your pain. I could almost taste metal and salt in the skin, and I thought, How good you are. You might have killed us with happiness, but You let us be with You in pain.
Graham Greene
Like some wines our love could neither mature nor travel.
Graham Greene
That instinct for human character that is perhaps inherent in an imaginative writer.
Graham Greene
There is a point of no return, unremarked at the time, in most lives.
Graham Greene
One can't love humanity. One can only love people.
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
Men can become twins with age. The past was their common womb the six months of rain and the six months of sun was the period of their common gestation. They needed only a few words and a few gestures to convey their meaning. They had graduated through the same fevers, they were moved by the same love and contempt.
Graham Greene
I've caught belief like a disease. I've fallen into belief like I fell in love.
Graham Greene
He was like a child with haemophilia: every contact drew blood.
Graham Greene
Sooner or later... one has to take sides. If one is to remain human.
Graham Greene
A brain is only capable of what it could conceive, andit couldnt concieve what it hasnt experienced
Graham Greene
I say that home is where there is a chair and a glass.
Graham Greene
Fame is a powerful aphrodisiac.
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
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
Media is just a word that has come to mean bad journalism.
Graham Greene
