Graham Greene on life and death

When you visualized a man or woman carefully, you could always begin to feel pity⁠— that was a quality God’s image carried with it.

There is always one moment in childhood when the door opens and lets the future in.

Cynicism is cheap⁠—you can buy it at any Monoprix store⁠—it’s built into all poor-quality goods.

Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.

John Lennon1940–1980Double Fantasy (1980), “Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)”

Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.

James Dean1931–1955

Live as if you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.

Mahatma Gandhi1869–1948
