I want words at my funeral. But I guess that means you need... - Markus Zusak, The Book Thief

"Still, they have one thing I envy. Humans, if nothing else, have the good sense to die."

"The point is, it didn’t really matter what the book was about. It was what it meant that was important."

"for some reason, dying men always ask the question they know the answer to. perhaps it's so they can die being right."

"Even death has a heart."

"A halo surrounded the grim reaper nun, Sister Maria. (By the way-I like this human idea of the grim reaper. I like the scythe. It amuses me.)"
