Max Brooks
Zombies are apocalyptic in nature. They belong to a class of monster that doesn't just hunt humans, but seeks to obliterate that entire human race.
Max Brooks
Fear is the most valuable commodity in the universe.
Max Brooks
...because I'm sure that as soon as things really get back to normal, once our kids or grandkids grow up in a peaceful and comfortable world, they'll probably go right back to being as selfish and narrow-minded and generally shitty to one another as we were.
Max Brooks
Americans worship technology. It's an inherent trait in the national zeitgeist.

I think 'G.I. Joe' is a perfect example of how I'm the world's worst businessman. If I were smart, I'd be writing 'World War Z Part 12', but I have to go where the muse leads, and I've always been a huge 'G.I. Joe' fan. I always wanted to know more about these characters, these little plastic figures I played with as a kid.

I actually wrote my first zombie book way before I got the job on 'Saturday Night Live.
Max Brooks
After all we'd been through, we still couldn't take our heads from out of our asses or our hands from around each other's throats.

If you believe you can accomplish everything by cramming at the eleventh hour, by all means, don't lift a finger now. But you may think twice about beginning to build your ark once it has already started raining
Max Brooks
Zombies don't run. They don't dance. They don't say, More brains. There is no Thriller Night. Those are stereotypes that are perpetrated by Hollywood, which I think is very irresponsible because it can get you killed.
Max Brooks
Sometimes you find your path, sometimes it finds you.
Max Brooks
Fear is the most valuable commodity in the universe...Turn on the TV...What are you seeing? People selling their products? No. People selling the fear of you having to live without their products.
Max Brooks
I wanted to serve. It was Desert Storm. I thought, 'I was a rich kid, and America's been good to me.

There's a word for that kind of lie. Hope.
Max Brooks
Remember no matter how desperate the situation seems, time spent thinking clearly is never time wasted.
Max Brooks
That's the thing about zombies. They don't adapt and they don't think. Literally, you could have a zombie on one side of a chain link fence and you could be on the other side and they could be trying to get to you and six feet down could be an open door and they will not go through that door in the fence. That's why they're so scary.
Max Brooks
Generation Z, they cleaned up their own mess.
