Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The people of the United States are one of the people I most admire in the world. The only thing I don't understand is why a country that manages to do so well cannot do better in choosing its president.

There's no greater misfortune than dying alone.

Santiago Nasar had often told me that the smell of closed-in flowers had an immediate relation to death for him.
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
Cease, cows, life is short.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The only regret I will have in dying is if it is not for love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Music is important for one's health.
