More quotes by Seth Grahame-Smith
It was a sort of peace I have rarely enjoyed since. As if we were the only two souls on earth—all of nature ours to enjoy. I wondered why a creator who had dreamt such beauty would have slandered it with such evil. Such grief. Why He had not been content to leave it unspoilt. I still wonder.
Seth Grahame-Smith
So I suggest you stick close, pay attention, and avoid breaking the Terrorverse's only commandment: Thou shall not be stupid.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I dare say she means to keep you from his attentions. Your honour demands she be slain.
Seth Grahame-Smith
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.

Sometimes we see the Civil War in movies and imagine these neatly aligned rows of men with muskets, walking in line to shoot each other. In reality the things that fascinated me were how absolutely ruthless and violent so many engagements were, how much suffering and how men were not prepared.
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.

My day job is making TV shows.
Seth Grahame-Smith
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? One can have all the comforts of the world, but what use are they if there is no comfort in them?
Seth Grahame-Smith
The true roll in determing to embrace or reject anything is not whether it have any evil in it but whether it have more of evil than of good. There are few things wholly evil or wholly good.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I leave you, hoping that the lamp of liberty will burn in your bosoms until there shall no longer be a doubt that all mean are created free and equal.
Seth Grahame-Smith
What makes a good book and what makes a good movie are totally different things.
Seth Grahame-Smith
But I am happy. And happiness, I have decided, is a noble ambition.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I want to be judged harshly because that forces me to really sit down and focus.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Abraham, he said. I'm pleased to see you alive, old friend. And I to see you dead.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I wouldn't back away from what's right just because it's hard.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Pride and Prejudice' - perhaps more than any other Jane Austen book - is engrained in our literary consciousness.
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
And I like a mouse who has taken a cat for its tutor.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Abraham Lincoln comes from nothing, has no education, no money, lives in the middle of nowhere on the frontier. And despite the fact that he suffers one tragedy and one setback after another, through sheer force of will, he becomes something extraordinary: not only the president but the person who almost single-handedly united the country.
