| 1fa8a5b | una prueba mas de lo contradictorio que es el ser humano. Una pizca de bondad, una pizca de maldad y solo falta anadirle agua. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 35efc6b | 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. | life ordinary record story winter | Markus Zusak | |

| 53bd02c | When I found it amongst the book thief's words, I realised that we passed each other once in a while during that period, though neither of us scheduled a meeting. Personally, I had a lot of work to do. As for Hans, I think he was doing his best to avoid me. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 6b819fb | We don't need a point, son. We're juvenile, we're dirty, we don't have girls, we have noses full of snot, throats sore as hell, we've got scabs on us, we suffer bouts of acne, we've got no girls ... What more reasons do we need? | juvenile no-girls reasons what-s-the-point | Markus Zusak | |
| 83a635f | I deliberately seek out the colors to keep my mind off them, but now and then, I witness the ones who are left behind, crumbling among the jigsaw puzzle of realization, despair and surprise. | death dispair humans jigsaw-puzzle lefovers realization surprise survivors witnesses | Markus Zusak | |
| 3ba7c90 | When Tommy walked forlornly home a short while later, Rudy tried what appeared to be a masterful new tactic. Pity. On the step, he perused the mud that had dried as a crusty sheet on his uniform, then looked Liesel hopelessly in the face. "What about it, Saumensch?" "What about what?" "You know. . . ." Liesel responded in the usual fashion. "Saukerl," she laughed, and she walked the short distance home. A disconcerting mixture of mud and pi.. | Markus Zusak | ||

| b8b5be1 | UN PENSAMIENTO AGRADABLE" Ella era una ladrona de libros. El asaltaba el cielo." | Markus Zusak | ||
| a4631ec | Oh, how the clouds stumbled in and assembled stupidly in the sky. Great obese clouds. Dark and plump. Bumping into each other. Apologizing. Moving on and finding room. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 2b38034 | Mire, solo unos segundos. Hacia 22 meses que no veia el mundo exterior. -?Que aspecto tenia? - Habia estrellas. Me quemaron los ojos. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 423ea35 | I tell me: Let these words be footsteps, because I have a long way to travel. Let the words walk the dirty streets. Let them make their way across the crying grass. Let them stand and breathe and pant smoke in winter evenings. And when they're tired and have fallen down, let them buckle to their feet ad arc around me, watchful. I want these words to be actions. Give them flesh and bones, I say to me, and eyes of hunger and desire, so they c.. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 2f81517 | Lo cierto es que durante los anos que duro la hegemonia de Hitler, nadie logro servir al Fuhrer con mayor lealtad que yo. El corazon de los humanos no es como el mio. El de los humanos es una linea, mientras que el mio es un circulo y poseo la infinita habilidad de estar en el lugar apropiado en el momento oportuno. La consecuencia es que siempre encuentro humanos en su mejor y en su peor momento. Veo su fealdad y su belleza y me pregunto c.. | Markus Zusak | ||

| fab4136 | Un nino y una nina se entrelazaban en Munchenstrasse. Se retorcian, incomodos, en el asfalto. Juntos, vieron desaparecer a los humanos. Los vieron disolverse en el aire humedo como si fueran grageas en movimiento. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 0291cbe | Life had altered in the wildest possible way, but it was imperative that they act as if nothing at all had happened. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 47cbe07 | I never did get around to praying for myself, did I? Maybe that's what was behind it, though. Myself. Maybe the only reason I'd prayed for others to begin with was to bring myself good fortune. Was that true? Was it? | Markus Zusak | ||
| da91296 | El chico del avion, pense. El del oso de peluche. ?Donde estaba el ultimo consuelo de Rudy? ?Donde estaba esa persona que consolarle de que le robaran la vida? ?Quien estaba alli para tranquilizarlo cuando le arrancaron la alfombra de la vida bajo los pies dormidos? Nadie. Alli solo estaba yo. Y lo de consolar a la gente no es que se me de muy bien que digamos, sobre todo con las manos frias y estando la cama tan caliente. Cargue con el, c.. | Markus Zusak | ||

| 24510e7 | Believe it or not - it takes a lot of love to hate you like this. | Markus Zusak | ||
| ffa558b | I thought for a moment about the dog. Miffy. I guess no matter how much Rube and I complained about him, we knew we'd sort of miss him if something happened to him. It's funny how there are things in this world that do nothing but annoy you, but you know you'd miss them when they're gone. Miffy, the Pomeranian wonderdog, was one such thing. | miffy miss pomeranian wonderdog | Markus Zusak | |

| c3cf501 | When the elderly Jew climbed to his feet for the last time and continued on, he looked briefly back. He took a last sad glance at the man who was kneeling now himself, whose back was burning with four lines of fire, whose knees were aching on the road. If nothing else, the old man would die like a human. Or at least with the thought that he was a human. | Markus Zusak | ||

| 5f3c485 | Yes, I have seen a great many things in this world. I attend the greatest disasters and work for the greatest villains. But then there are other moments. There's a multitude of stories (a mere handful, as I have previously suggested) that I allow to distract me as I work, just as the colors do. I pick them up in the unluckiest, unlikeliest places and I make sure to remember them as I go about my work. The Book Thief is one such story. When .. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 92e5be8 | To most people, Hans Hubermann was barely visible. An un-special person. Certainly, his painting skills were excellent. His musical ability was better than average. Somehow, though, and I'm sure you've met people like this, he was able to appear as merely part of the background, even if he was standing at the front of a line. He was always just there. Not noticeable. | Markus Zusak | ||
| e6c0820 | it didn't really matter what that book was about. It was what it meant that was more important. | Markus Zusak | ||
| a21c53b | The horizon was beginning to charcoal. What was left of the blackness above was nothing now but a scribble, and disappearing fast. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 98e1063 | But sometimes the truth arrives on you, and you can't get it off. That's when you realize that sometimes it isn't even an answer--it's a question. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 45b9b85 | Silence was not quiet or calm, and it was not peace. | Markus Zusak | ||
| cb9d5e0 | The word maybe was beginning to annoy me, because the only thing that was fixed was that maybe would be with me forever. | forever maybe | Markus Zusak | |
| 4dcc9d4 | But for now, happiness throws stones. It guards itself. I wait. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 050038f | The world is lightening, taking shape, and turning to color. | Markus Zusak | ||
| 2860df1 | I think only one thing. Where 's Octavia? As I get closer to the bottom, I notice that it's water that I'm falling into. It's salty-green and smooth, until... I'm driven through the surface and go deeper. I'm surrounded. I'm drowning. I think. I'm drowning. But I'm smiling too. | Markus Zusak |
