Graham Greene

"Morality comes with the sad wisdom of age, when the sense of curiosity has withered."

"People talk about the courage of condemned men walking to the place of execution: sometimes it needs as much courage to walk with any kind of bearing towards another person's habitual misery."

"Failure too is a form of death."

"We are all of us resigned to death: it's life we aren't resigned to."

"Failure too is a form of death."

"Success is more dangerous than failure, the ripples break over a wider coastline."
