Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Gabriel Garcia Marquez
My most important problem was destroying the lines of demarcation that separate what seems real from what seems fantastic.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Her nakedness was not absolute, for like Manet's _Olympia__, behind her ear she had a poisonous flower with orange petals, and she also wore a gold bangle on her right wrist and a necklace of tiny pearls. I imagined I would never see anything more exciting for as long as I lived, and today I can confirm that I was right.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
