Gabriel Garcia Marquez Quotes
Everyone Will Have Gone Then Except Us, Because We're Tied To This Soil By A Roomful Of Trunks Where The Household Goods And Clothing Of Grandparents Are Kept, And The Canopies That My Parenrs' Horses Used When They Came To Macondo, Fleeing From The War. We've Been Sown Into This Soil By The Memory Of The Remote Dead Whose Bones Can No Longer Be Found Twenty Fathoms Under The Earth. The Trunks Have Been In The Room Ever Since The Last Days Of The War; And They'll Be There This Afternoon When We Come Back From The Burial, If That Final Wind Hasn't Passed, The One That Will Sweep Away Macondo, Its Bedrooms Full Of Lizards And Its Silent People Devastated By Memories.
