More quotes by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The truth is that I know very few novelists who have been satisfied with the adaptation of their books for the screen.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
If you love something - let. If it is yours - it will come back. I love you not because of who you are, but for who I am when I'm with you.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Don't open that door, she said. The hallway is full of difficult dreams. And I asked her: How do you know? And she told me: Because I was there a moment ago and I had to come back when I discovered I was sleeping on my heart.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I’ve remained a virgin for you.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I have waited for this opportunity for more than half a century, to repeat to you once again my vow of eternal fidelity and everlasting love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Morality, too, is a question of time.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
And nevertheless, when they watched him leave the house, this man they themselves had urged to conquer the world, then they were the ones left with the terror that he would never return. That was their life. Love, if it existed, was something separate: another life.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
This was his world, he said to himself, the sad, oppressive world that God had provided for him, and he was responsible to it.
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
Between the covers of the books that no one had ever read again, in the old parchments damaged by dampness, a livid flower had prospered, and in the air that had been the purest and brightest in the house an unbearable smell of rotten memories floated.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Nothing one does in bed is immoral if it helps to perpetuate love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Nothing resembles a person as much as the way he dies.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Nobody is worth crying for, and those that are worth it will not make you cry.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
She would defend herself, saying that love, no matter what else it might be, was a natural talent. She would say: You are either born knowing how, or you never know.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Fernanda, on the other hand, looked for it in vain along the paths of her everyday itinerary without knowing that the search for lost things is hindered by routine habits and that is why it is so difficult to find them.
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
As I kissed her the heat of her body increased, and it exhaled a wild, untamed fragrance.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Humanity, like armies in the field, advances at the speed of the slowest.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I must try and break through the cliches about Latin America. Superpowers and other outsiders have fought over us for centuries in ways that have nothing to do with our problems. In reality we are all alone.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The truth is that the first changes are so slow they pass almost unnoticed, and you go on seeing yourself as you always were, from the inside, but others observe you from the outside.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
