More quotes by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
wisdom comes to us when it can no longer do any good.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The only thing he could do to stay alive was not to allow himself the anguish of that memory. He erased it from his mind, although from time to time in the years that were left to him he would feel it revive, with no warning and for no reason, like the sudden pang of an old scar.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Never stop smiling not even when you're sad, someone might fall in love with your smile.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
An ash-gray dog with a white blaze on its forehead burst onto the rough terrain of the market on the first Sunday in December, knocked down tables of fried food, overturned Indians' stalls and lottery kiosks, and bit four people who happened to cross its path.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The weak would never enter the kingdom of love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Only God knows how much I love you.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
And both of them remained floating in an empty universe where the only everyday & eternal reality was love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Many years later, in front of the firing squad, colonel Aureliano Buendía would remember that distant afternoon his father took him to see ice.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
In journalism just one fact that is false prejudices the entire work. In contrast, in fiction one single fact that is true gives legitimacy to the entire work. That's the only difference, and it lies in the commitment of the writer. A novelist can do anything he wants so long as he makes people believe in it.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Her heart of compressed ash, which had resisted the most telling blows of daily reality without strain, fell apart with the first waves of nostalgia.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
There's no greater misfortune than dying alone.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Fiction was invented the day Jonas arrived home and told his wife that he was three days late because he had been swallowed by a whale.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Gaston was not only a fierce lover, with endless wisdom and imagination, but he was also, perhaps, the first man in the history of the species who had made an emergency landing and had come close to killing himself and his sweetheart simply to make love in a field of violets.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
In the end all books are written for your friends.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
It was a meditation on life, love, old age, death: ideas that had often fluttered around her head like nocturnal birds but dissolved into a trickle of feathers when she tried to catch hold of them.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Surrealism runs through the streets.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
We'll grow old waiting.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Over the weekend the vultures got into the presidential palace by pecking through the screens on the balcony windows and the flapping of their wings stirred up the stagnant time inside, and at dawn on Monday the city awoke out of its lethargy of centuries with the warm, soft breeze of a great man dead and rotting grandeur.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Give me a prejudice and I will move the world.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
It was the year they fell into devastating love. Neither one could do anything except think about the other, dream about the other, and wait for letters with the same impatience they felt when they answered them.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
