More quotes by Seth Grahame-Smith
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
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
Most men have no purpose but to exist, Abraham to pass quietly through history as minor characters upon a stage they cannot even see
Seth Grahame-Smith
Of all the weapons in the world, love is the most dangerous.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Father may have been wanting in some things, but here he was masterful. Night upon night, I marveled at his power to hold listeners in rapt attention. He could tell a story with such detail, such flourish, that afterwards a man could swear it had been his own memory, and not a tale at all.
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
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.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Some novels present a story form many points of view. Most movies tell only one person's side of the story. Sometime it's easy to use the strongest point of view, or find the character with the most dramatic experience. It depends on which themes the scriptwriter wants to explore.
Seth Grahame-Smith
And I like a mouse who has taken a cat for its tutor.
Seth Grahame-Smith
But I am happy. And happiness, I have decided, is a noble ambition.
Seth Grahame-Smith
What makes a good book and what makes a good movie are totally different things.
Seth Grahame-Smith
However, it has long been said that my enemy's enemy is my friend.
Seth Grahame-Smith
I wouldn't back away from what's right just because it's hard.
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
I would much prefer their minds to be engaged in the deadly arts than clouded with dreams of marriage and fortune, as your own so clearly is!
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
Of all the weapons she had commanded, Elizabeth knew the least of love and of all the weapons in the world, love was the most dangerous.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Elizabeth sheathed her sword, knelt behind him, and strangled him to death with his own large bowel.
Seth Grahame-Smith
Your quarrel is with God. I merely wish to offer Him the opportunity to judge you.
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.
