Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Ah, me, if this is love, then how it torments.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Music is important for one's health.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
He was weary of the uncertainty of the vicious circle of that eternal war that always found him in the same place, but always older, wearier, even more in the position of not knowing why, or how, or even when.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Children's lies are signs of great talent.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
To oppression, plundering and abandonment, we respond with life.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
She was a ghost in a strange house that overnight had become immense and solitary and through which she wandered without purpose, asking herself in anguish which one of them was deader: the man who had died or the woman he had left behind.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Gabriel Garcia Marquez
