Isn't it true that every aristocrat wants to die?
Harold Pinter
While The United States is the most powerful nation the world has ever seen, it is also the most detested nation that the world has ever known.
Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter
The crimes of the U.S. throughout the world have been systematic, constant, clinical, remorseless, and fully documented but nobody talks about them.
Harold Pinter
Good writing excites me, and makes life worth living.
Harold Pinter
I believe the US is a truly monstrous force in the world, now off the leash for obvious reasons.
Harold Pinter
No matter how you look at it, all the emotions connected with love are not really immortal like all other passions in life, they are bound to fade at some point. The trick is to convert love into some lasting friendship that overcomes the fading passion.
Harold Pinter
I also found being called Sir rather silly.
Harold Pinter
The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.
Harold Pinter
