Graham Greene, on writing:


A story has no beginning or end:

Graham Greene, on writing:


Writing is a form of therapy;
sometimes I wonder how all those who do not write, compose, or paint, can manage to escape the madness, melancholia, the panic, and fear which is inherent in a human situation.

- Graham Greene.
