Graham Greene Quotes on Philosophy

4 quotes

  1. Reality in our century is not something to be faced.

  2. The sense of unhappiness is so much easier to convey than that of happiness. In misery we seem aware of our own existence, even though it may be in the form of a monstrous egotism: this pain of mine is individual, this nerve that winces belong to me and to no other. But happiness annihilates us: we lose our identity.

  3. 'Oh, I'm not a Berkeleian. I believe my back's against this wall. I believe there's a sten gun over there.'

  4. Death will come in any case, and there is a long afterwards if the priests are right and nothing to fear if they are wrong.
