More quotes by Harold Pinter
I'm not committed as a writer, in the usual sense of the term, either religiously or politically. And I'm not conscious of any particular social function. I write because I want to write. I don't see any placards on myself, and I don't carry any banners.
Harold Pinter
I mean, if a thing works, if a thing is right, respect that, acknowledge it, respect it and hold to it.
Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter
Good writing excites me, and makes life worth living.
Harold Pinter
Nothing is more sterile or lamentable than the man content to live within himself.

Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter
Isn't it true that every aristocrat wants to die?
Harold Pinter
I also found being called Sir rather silly.
Harold Pinter
Clinton's hands remain incredibly clean, don't they, and Tony Blair's smile remains as wide as ever. I view these guises with profound contempt.
Harold Pinter
One way of looking at speech is to say it is a constant stratagem to cover nakedness.
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 was brought up in the War. I was an adolescent in the Second World War. And I did witness in London a great deal of the Blitz.
Harold Pinter
