I just know that right now, we want to be proud. For once. We want to take the struggle and rise above it. We want to frame it, live it, survive it. We want to put it in our mouths and taste it and never forget it, because it makes us strong.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

A happening was looming. It w...

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.

Smile with instinct, then lick your wounds in the darkest of dark corners. Trace the scars back to your own fingers and remember them.

An eleven-year-old girl is many things, but she is not stupid.

There was also a rumor that later in the day, she walked fully clothed into the Amper River and said something very strange. Something about a kiss. Something about a Saumensch. How many times did she have to say goodbye?

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

Death waits for no man - and if he does, he doesn't usually wait for very long.

On many counts, taking a boy ...

On many counts, taking a boy like Rudy Steiner was robbery--so much life, so much to live for--yet somehow, I'm certain he would have loved to see the frightening rubble and the swelling of the sky on the night he passed away. He'd have cried and turned and smiled if only he could have seen the book thief on her hands and knees, next to his decimated body. He'd have been glad to witness her kissing his dusty, bomb-hit lips. Yes, I know it. In the darkness of my dark-beating heart, I know. He'd have loved it all right. You see? Even death has a heart.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

Our footsteps run, and I don'...

Our footsteps run, and I don't want them to end. I want to run and laugh and feel like this forever. I want to avoid any awkward moment when the realness of reality sticks its fork into our flesh, leaving us standing there, together. I want to stay here, in this moment, and never go to other places, where we don't know what to say or what to do.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

One day, Liesel.' he said, 'you'll be dying to kiss me.

Clearly," said Arthur,"you're an idiot- but you're our kind of idiot. Come on.

The water crumbles on it's way down as my hands and feet push me forward. The world is lightening, taking shape, and turning to color. It feels like it's being painted around me.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

A small but noteworthy note. ...

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.

And they would all smile at the beauty of destruction.

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 397 quotes

A SMALL PIECE OF TRUTH I do n...

A SMALL PIECE OF TRUTH I do not carry a sickle or scythe. I only wear a hooded black robe when it's cold. And I don't have those skull-like facial features you seem to enjoy pinning on me from a distance. You want to know what I truly look like? I'll help you out. Find yourself a mirror while I continue.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

How does it feel, anyway?" How does what feel?" When you take one of those books?" At that moment, she chose to keep still. If he wants an answer, he'd have to come back, and he did. "Well?" he asked, but again, it was the boy who replied, before Liesel could even open her mouth. It feels good, doesn't it? To steal something back.

She took a step and didn't want to take any more, but she did.

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

The pages and the words are my world, spread out before your eyes and for your hand to touch. Vaguely, I can see you face looking down into me, as I look back. Do you see my eyes?

Markus Zusak 397 quotes

She was battered and beaten up, and not smiling this time. Liesel could see it on her face. Blood leaked from her nose and licked at her lips. Her eyes had blackened. Cuts had opened up and a series of wounds were rising to the surface of her skin. All from the words. From Liesel's words.

Very suddenly. Yes, quite suddenly, I didn't feel like I could handle my feeling of aloneness.
