Gabriel Garcia Marquez
In the end all books are written for your friends.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
and it was always without pretensions of loving or being loved although always in the hope of finding something that resembled love but without the problems of love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I must warn you that the books I like are not necessarily the ones I think are the best. I like them for various reasons not always easy to explain.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
