Text Quotes
I’ve been a writer since I was 16. I didn’t get published until I was 24. I know that sounds crazy  (Markus Zusak Quotes) A happening was looming. It was out there somewhere beyond the regular enclosed life that I had been living. It was out there, not waiting, but existing. Being. Perhaps it was only slightly wondering if I would come to it  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Winning wasn’t natural for me. It had to be fought for, in the echoes and trodden footprints of my mind  (Markus Zusak Quotes) There was sex, of course. Nakedness. Wall to wall, in and out of my thoughts. But when it was over it was her whispering voice I craved, and a human curled up in my arms  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I look at my first books and am glad they weren’t published... You start writing by imitating your heroes, then you keep the heart of that worship in your work. As time goes by, you get other influences and find your own voice  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I don’t really know that this story has a whole lot of things happen in it. It doesn’t really. It’s just a record of how things were in my life during this last winter. I guess things happened, but nothing out of the ordinary  (Markus Zusak Quotes) The flyscreen door slammed behind me. My feet dragged. I reached each arm into the jacket. Warm sleeves. Crumpled collar. Hands in pockets. Okay. I walked  (Markus Zusak Quotes) The beauty of my work is that my sets cost nothing. That’s what I love about being a writer of novels  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I walked home, seeing all my doubt from the other side. Have you ever seen that? Like when you go on holiday. On the way back, everything is the same but it looks a little different than it did on the way. It’s because you’re seeing it backwards  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Around us I can sniff out a savagery in the noisy southern air. It knifes it’s way into my nose, but I do not bleed blood. It’s fear I bleed, and it gushes out over my lip. I wipe it away, in a hurry  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Sometimes people are beautiful. Not in looks. Not in what they say. Just in what they are  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I have hated words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right  (Markus Zusak Quotes) ... one opportunity leads directly to another, just as risk leads to more risk, life to more life, and death to more death  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I want words at my funeral. But I guess that means you need life in your life  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I only know that all of those people would have sensed me that night, excluding the youngest of the children. I was the suggestion. I was the advice, my imagined feet walking into the kitchen and down the corridor  (Markus Zusak Quotes) ... they watched the humans disappear. They watched them dissolve, like moving tablets in the humid air  (Markus Zusak Quotes) The words. Why did they have to exist? Without them, there wouldn’t be any of this  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Just be patient, she told herself, and with the mounting pages, the strength of her writing fist grew  (Markus Zusak Quotes) The book thief has struck for the first time – the beginning of an illustrious career  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Somewhere, far down, there was an itch in his heart, but he made it a point not to scratch it. He was afraid of what might come leaking out  (Markus Zusak Quotes) It’s a lot easier, she realized, to be on the verge of something than to actually be it. This would still take time  (Markus Zusak Quotes) I have to say that although it broke my heart, I was, and still am, glad I was there  (Markus Zusak Quotes) All my friends seem to be smart arses. Don’t ask me why. Like many things, it is what it is  (Markus Zusak Quotes) He’s most likely robbing the bank as a paycheck on the world for winning the ugliness prize at his local fete three years running  (Markus Zusak Quotes) She wanted none of those days to end, and it was always with disappointment that she watched the darkness stride forward  (Markus Zusak Quotes) Together, they would watch everything that was so carefully planned collapse, and they would smile at the beauty of destruction  (Markus Zusak Quotes) If only she could be so oblivious again, to feel such love without knowing it, mistaking it for laughter  (Markus Zusak Quotes) A small but noteworthy note. I’ve seen so many young men over the years who think they’re running at other young men. They are not. They are running at me  (Markus Zusak Quotes) At first, she could not talk. Perhaps it was the sudden bumpiness of love she felt for him. Or had she always loved him?  (Markus Zusak Quotes) It was one of those moments of perfect tiredness, of having conquered not only the work at hand, but the night who had blocked the way  (Markus Zusak Quotes)
