Graham Greene Quotes
I Became Aware That Our Love Was Doomed; Love Had Turned Into A Love Affair With A Beginning And An End. I Could Name The Very Moment When It Had Begun, And One Day I Knew I Should Be Able To Name The Final Hour. When She Left The House I Couldn't Settle To Work. I Would Reconstruct What We Had Said To Each Other; I Would Fan Myself Into Anger Or Remorse. And All The Time I Knew I Was Forcing The Pace. I Was Pushing, Pushing The Only Thing I Loved Out Of My Life. As Long As I Could Make Believe That Love Lasted I Was Happy; I Think I Was Even Good To Live With, And So Love Did Last. But If Love Had To Die, I Wanted It To Die Quickly. It Was As Though Our Love Were A Small Creature Caught In A Trap And Bleeding To Death; I Had To Shut My Eyes And Wring Its Neck.
