"That's maybe the reason he does so..." - Quote by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

“There is no greater glory than to die for love.”

“A famous writer who wants to continue writing has to be constantly defending himself against fame.”

“The world was reduced to the surface of her skin and her inner self was safe from all bitterness.”

“Death is easier to bear without thinking of it, than the thought of death without peril.”

“You cannot find peace by avoiding life.”

“We do not rest satisfied with the present.... So imprudent we are that we wander in the times which are not ours and do not thinkof the only one which belongs to us; and so idle are we that we dream of those times which are no more and thoughtlessly overlook that which alone exists. For the present is generally painful to us.”

“We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if mankind is to survive.”

“At least once a day, allow yourself the freedom to think and dream for yourself.”

“Whatever may be said against the chewing of tobacco, this at least can be said of it, that it gives a man time to think between sentences.”
