When he was young, he had thou...

When he was young, he had thought love had something to do with understanding, but with age he knew that no human being understood another. Love was the wish to understand, and presently with constant failure the wish died, and love died too perhaps or changed into this painful affection, loyalty, pity

Graham Greene 277 quotes

People change,' she said 'Oh, ...

People change,' she said 'Oh, no they don't. Look at me. I've never changed. It's like those sticks of rock: bite it all the way down, you'll still read Brighton. That's human nature.

You don't bless what you love....

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 277 quotes

Yesterday I went home with him...

Yesterday I went home with him and we did the usual things. I haven't the nerve to put them down, but I'd like to, because now when I'm writing it's already tomorrow and I'm afraid of getting to the end of yesterday. As long as I go on writing, yesterday is today and we are still together

Graham Greene 277 quotes

Sometimes I see myself reflect...

Sometimes I see myself reflected too closely in other men for comfort, and then I have an enormous wish to believe in the saints, in heroic virtue.

Graham Greene 277 quotes

What have we all got to expect...

What have we all got to expect that we allow ourselves to be so lined with disappointment?

Graham Greene 277 quotes

How strange too and unfamiliar...

How strange too and unfamiliar to think that one had been loved, that one's presence had once had the power to make a difference between happiness and dullness in another's day.

Graham Greene 277 quotes

...and yet could swear it was ...

...and yet could swear it was just then that I fell in love. It wasn't, of course, simply the onions -- it was the sudden sense of an individual woman, of a frankness that was so often later to make me happy and miserable.

Graham Greene 277 quotes

O God, You've done enough, You...

O God, You've done enough, You've robbed me of enough, I'm too tired and old to learn to love, leave me alone for ever.

We never get accustomed to being less important to other people than they are to us.

Graham Greene 277 quotes

They can print statistics and count the populations in hundreds of thousands, but to each man a city consists of no more than a few streets, a few houses, a few people. Remove those few and a city exists no longer except as a pain in the memory, like a pain of an amputated leg no longer there.

Graham Greene 277 quotes

Any man who knocks on the door of a brothel is looking for God.

As long as one suffers one lives.
