Sometimes you feel you have the truth of a moment in your hand, then it slips through your fingers and is lost.

The only theatre I ever saw was Shakespeare.

A short piece of work means as much to me as a long piece of work.

I was told that, when 'Betray...

I was told that, when 'Betrayal' was being produced by one of the provincial companies in England, the two actors playing those roles actually went into a pub one day and played that scene as if it were really happening to them. The people around them became very uncomfortable.

I don't think there's been any writer like Samuel Beckett. He's unique. He was a most charming man and I used to send him my plays.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

You have to hand it to America. It has exercised a quite clinical manipulation of power worldwide while masquerading as a force for universal good.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

A few friends and me used to go and watch Bunuel, Carne, Cocteau... Cocteau and Bunuel were surrealism. And I was very excited by that. 'Un Chien Andalou', especially.

George W. Bush is always protesting that he has the fate of the world in mind and bangs on about the 'freedom-loving peoples' he's seeking to protect. I'd love to meet a freedom-hating people.

The crimes of the U.S. throughout the world have been systematic, constant, clinical, remorseless, and fully documented but nobody talks about them.

My father was a tailor. He worked from seven o'clock in the morning until seven at night. At least when he got home, my mother always cooked him a very good dinner. Lots of potatoes, I remember; he used to knock them down like a dose of salts. He needed it, after a 12-hour day.

This particular nurse said, Cancer cells are those which have forgotten how to die. I was so struck by this statement.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

I don't intend to simply go away and write my plays and be a good boy. I intend to remain an independent and political intelligence in my own right.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

I could be a bit of a pain in the arse. Since I've come out of my cancer, I must say I intend to be even more of a pain in the arse.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

I think plays have nothing to...

I think plays have nothing to do with one's own personal life. Not in my experience, anyway. The stuff of drama has to do, not with your subject matter, anyway, but with how you treat it. Drama includes pain, loss, regret - that's what drama is about!

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

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 98 quotes

There is a movement to get an international criminal court in the world, voted for by hundreds of states-but with the noticeable absence of the United States of America.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

Quite often, I have a compelling sense of how a role should be played. And I'm proved - equally as often - quite wrong.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

The past is what you remember...

The past is what you remember, imagine you remember, convince yourself you remember, or pretend you remember.

Harold Pinter 98 quotes

I'm well aware that I have been described in some quarters as being 'enigmatic, taciturn, prickly, explosive and forbidding'. Well, I have my moods like anyone else; I won't deny it.

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.
