Max Brooks Quotes

Generation Z, they cleaned up their own mess Picture Quote #1

Since 2001, people have been scared. There’s been some really scary stuff that’s been happening - 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, Katrina, anthrax letters, D.C. sniper, global warming, global financial meltdown, bird flu, swine flu, SARS. I think people really feel like the system’s breaking down Picture Quote #1

I remember I used to come up to my teacher crying because I couldn’t read. She would say: ‘You can do this. You just don’t want to do this Picture Quote #1

The dead walk among us. Zombies, ghouls-no matter what their label-these somnambulists are the greatest threat to humanity, other than humanity itself Picture Quote #1

I wanted to serve. It was Desert Storm. I thought, ‘I was a rich kid, and America’s been good to me Picture Quote #1

I wrote ‘The Zombie Survival Guide’ because I wanted to read it, and nobody else was writing it. All I’ve been doing with everything I’ve written is answering questions that I had Picture Quote #1

I think Americans are at our best when we recover from a crisis. We’ve suffered some blows that other countries would have never recovered from Picture Quote #1

You can watch ‘Dawn of the Dead’ and still sleep at night. Try that with ‘The Day After’ Picture Quote #1

Looking for love on the internet is like Janet Leigh asking Norman Bates if he likes her body Picture Quote #1

Any survival guide will tell you, don’t buy a pair of combat boots before any disaster. They’ll tear your feet up. Or water - don’t bring water with you because it’ll tire you out and you’ll lose too much fluid. Bring a water pump Picture Quote #1

If I knew anything about what people wanted and was popular, I’d still be writing for ‘Saturday Night Live’. I can only write what I want, and hopefully people will like it Picture Quote #1

We live in such a service-based, globalised economy where very few people actually make anything and the people who do make stuff... it’s all part of a massive global supply chain. So what if all those chains were suddenly cut, how would you make something? How would you keep people alive? And that was something I wanted to explore Picture Quote #1

You assume things, like whatever country has more firepower wins the wars, and that’s actually not true at all Picture Quote #1

Zombies are apocalyptic in nature. They belong to a class of monster that doesn’t just hunt humans, but seeks to obliterate that entire human race Picture Quote #1

You can’t blame anyone else, ... , no one but yourself. You have to make your own choices and live every agonizing day with the consequences of those choices Picture Quote #1

Gu was a worrier, a neurotic curmudgeon. If he had a headache, it was a brain tumor; if it looked like rain, this year’s harvest was ruined. This was his way of controlling the situation, his lifelong strategy for always coming out ahead. Now, when reality looked more dire than any of his fatalisitic predictions, he had no choice but to turn tail and charge in the opposite direction Picture Quote #1

That’s the thing about zombies. They don’t adapt and they don’t think. Literally, you could have a zombie on one side of a chain link fence and you could be on the other side and they could be trying to get to you and six feet down could be an open door and they will not go through that door in the fence. That’s why they’re so scary Picture Quote #1

I think the general anxiety of the 1960s - 70s spawned our interest in the living dead. When people worry about the end of their world, they need a safe vessel for all their fears. Zombies provide that vessel because they’re ‘safe.’ Picture Quote #1

Secrecy is a vacuum and nothing fills a vacuum like paranoid speculation Picture Quote #1

The highest distinction is service to others Picture Quote #1

Fear is the most valuable commodity in the universe Picture Quote #1

We’ve been at peace about as long as e were at war Picture Quote #1

They didn’t break me. I broke myself Picture Quote #1

To know is always better, no matter what the answer might be Picture Quote #1

There comes a point where emotions must give way to objective facts Picture Quote #1

Fear is the most basic emotion we have. Fear is primal. Fear sells Picture Quote #1
