More quotes by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
There is no greater glory than to die for love.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Perhaps this is what the stories meant when they called somebody heartsick. Your heart and your stomach and your whole insides felt empty and hollow and aching.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I would like for my books to have been recognized posthumously, at least in capitalist countries, where they turn you into a kind of merchandise.
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
He thought about his people without sentimentality, with a strict closing of his accounts with life, beginning to understand how much he really loved the people he hated most.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The woman let out an expansive laugh that resounded through the house like a spray of broken glass.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Nobody is worth crying for, and those that are worth it will not make you cry.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
He allowed himself to be swayed by his conviction that human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them, but that life obliges them over and over again to give birth to themselves.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Most critics don't realize that a novel like One Hundred Years of Solitude is a bit of a joke, full of signals to close friends and so, with some pre-ordained right to pontificate they take on the responsibility of decoding the book and risk making terrible fools of themselves.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
And again, as always, after so many years we were still in the same place we always were.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Over the weekend the vultures got into the presidential palace by pecking through the screens on the balcony windows and the flapping of their wings stirred up the stagnant time inside, and at dawn on Monday the city awoke out of its lethargy of centuries with the warm, soft breeze of a great man dead and rotting grandeur.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Love becomes greater and nobler in calamity.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The only thing he could do to stay alive was not to allow himself the anguish of that memory. He erased it from his mind, although from time to time in the years that were left to him he would feel it revive, with no warning and for no reason, like the sudden pang of an old scar.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
It was a love of perpetual flight.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
This soup tastes like windows
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Take advantage of it now, while you are young, and suffer all you can, because these things don't last your whole life.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
I discovered the miracle that all things that sound are music, including the dishes and silverware in the dishwasher, as long as they fulfill the illusion of showing us where life is heading.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Just as real events are forgotten, some that never were can be in our memories as if they happened.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
One of the most difficult things is the first paragraph. I have spent many months on a first paragraph, and once I get it, the rest just comes out very easily.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez
The world is divided into those who screw and those who do not. He distrusted those who did not—when they strayed form the straight and narrow it was something so unusual for them that they bragged about love as if they had just invented it.
