More quotes by Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter

Harold Pinter
Good writing excites me, and makes life worth living.
Harold Pinter
Don't forget the earth's about five thousand million years old, at least. Who can afford to live in the past?
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
How can the unknown merit reverence?
Harold Pinter
Most of the press is in league with government, or with the status quo.
Harold Pinter
Isn't it true that every aristocrat wants to die?
Harold Pinter
