More quotes by 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
I had committed myself: without love I'd have to go through the gestures of love.
Graham Greene

Graham Greene
She had lost all our memories for ever, and it was as though by dying she had robbed me of part of myself. I was losing my individuality. It was the first stage of my own death, the memories dropping off like gangrened limbs.
Graham Greene
One's life is more formed, I sometimes think, by books than by human beings: it is out of books one learns about love and pain at second hand.
Graham Greene
All the emotions have something in common. People are quite aware of the sorrow there always is in lust, but they are not so aware of the lust there is in sorrow.
Graham Greene
Hate is an automatic response to fear, for fear humiliates.
Graham Greene
Media is just a word that has come to mean bad journalism.
Graham Greene
Most things disappoint till you look deeper.
Graham Greene
So it always is: when you escape to a desert the silence shouts in your ear.
Graham Greene
In Switzerland they had brotherly love, five hundred years of democracy and peace, and what did they produce? The cuckoo clock!
