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
There is a point of no return, unremarked at the time, in most lives.
Graham Greene
If two people loved, they slept together it was a mathematical formula, tested and proved by human experience.
