More quotes by Seth Grahame-Smith

I nearly broke out laughing when the wrteched soothsayer warned Caesar: Beware the Ides of April. I thought it a miracle (and a relief) that no one in the udience had snickered or yelled out a correction. How could such an error be made by an actor? Had my ears deceived me?

And when this intoxication has worn away... when every desire is fulfilled and every language learned- when there are no more distant cities to explore no classics to be studied not another coin to be stuffed in to one's coffers- what then?

I always say that the characters in Jane Austen's original books are rather like zombies because they live in this bubble of immense wealth and privilege and no matter what's going on around them they have a singular purpose to maintain their rank and to impress others.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I think zombies have always been an easy metaphor for hard times. Because they're this big, faceless, brainless group of evil things that will work tirelessly to destroy you and think of nothing else.
Seth Grahame-Smith
We may all deserve hell, but some of us deserve it sooner than others.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Abraham, he said. I'm pleased to see you alive, old friend. And I to see you dead.
Seth Grahame-Smith
My men have suffered greatly (from boredom), much blood has been shed (by mosquitoes), and I have swung my ax mightily (chopping firewood). Surely we have earned our place in the annals of history—for never has there been so little war in a war.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Without death,' he answered, 'life is meaningless. It is a story that can never be told. A song that can never be sung. For how would one finish it?
Seth Grahame-Smith
Any man who has seen the face of death knows better than to seek him out a second time.
Seth Grahame-Smith
It was a really strange and unique sort of process for me to adapt my own book.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Hug your children...Kiss your mothers and fathers, your brothers and sisters. Tell them how much you love them, every day. Because every day is the last day. Every light casts a shadow. And only the gods know when the darkness will find us.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Movie characters rarely get to think out loud or talk very much about their emotions. Instead they have to, very briefly, show their feelings through their action or through dialog.

The bottom half of the page had descended into a doodle of a tiny man giving the middle finger to a giant, angry eagle with razor-sharp talons. Beneath it, the caption: To Mock a Killing Bird.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Elizabeth sheathed her sword, knelt behind him, and strangled him to death with his own large bowel.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Her only fault is that she lacks sense enough to avoid falling in love with such a fool as I!
Seth Grahame-Smith
I feel like the luckiest guy on the planet. But, I literally work all day, every day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, and that's not an exaggeration.
Seth Grahame-Smith
