I never think of myself as wise. I think of myself as possessing a critical intelligence which I intend to allow to operate.
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
Image
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
Image
Beckett had an unerring light on things, which I much appreciated.
Harold Pinter
Image
The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.

One is and is not in the centre of the maelstrom of it all.
