More Quotes from Graham Greene:
I envied those who could believe in a God and I distrusted them. I felt they were keeping their courage up with a fable of the changeless and the permanent. Death was far more certain than God, and with death there would be no longer the possibility of love dying.Graham Greene

Graham Greene
No human being can really understand another, and no one can arrange another's happiness.
Graham Greene
