More quotes by Guillermo del Toro
Genius is the true mystery, and at its edge--the abyss.
Guillermo del Toro
It's the difference between a parable and a pamphlet. A parable discusses things that are relevant in the past, the future, and the present - regardless of the outcome in the present.

Guillermo del Toro

Guillermo del Toro
The saddest journey in the world is the one that follows a precise itinerary. Then you're not a traveler. You're a f@@king tourist.
