Some Max Brooks's quotes. Goto "Max Brooks's quotation" section for more.Zombie books were going to be my passion projects, but certainly not pay the bills. I thought I was going to have to get a real job on a sitcom or something, and have my zombie books to remind myself I was still a writer at heart. I never thought I could actually pay my bills and write what I wanted.
Tags: Heart, Job, RealZombies are apocalyptic. I think that's why people love them because we're living in, not apocalyptic times, but I think we're living in fear of the apocalyptic times.
Tags: Fear, Living, LoveZombies are so popular. There's a lot of chaff out there. For every one person who is legitimately passionate about zombies, there are a hundred people who are thinking, 'Hey, I can make a buck off of this.' The problem is that some of their stuff is so lame.
Tags: Off, Problem, ThinkingZombies have no memories of their former life. You wont see the undead trying to wash windows or do your taxes. All they know how to do is swarm and feed.
Tags: Life, Memories, TryingBefore I'm a zombie nerd, before I'm a science-fiction nerd, I am a history nerd.
Tags: History, Nerd, ZombieI actually wrote my first zombie book way before I got the job on 'Saturday Night Live.'
Tags: Book, Job, NightI 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.'
Tags: Remember, She, TeacherI 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.
Tags: Best, Countries, CrisisI wanted to serve. It was Desert Storm. I thought, 'I was a rich kid, and America's been good to me.'
Tags: America, Good, ThoughtThe bottom line is I'm a slow zombie guy - I'm always a slow zombie guy but I also know I'm in the minority.
Tags: Bottom, Guy, LineWhen I started writing, there was nothing about zombies. It was all teen movies, which to me are scarier than zombies, but that's another story.
Tags: Movies, Teen, WritingYou assume things, like whatever country has more firepower wins the wars, and that's actually not true at all.
Tags: Country, True, WhateverYou can watch 'Dawn of the Dead' and still sleep at night. Try that with 'The Day After'.
Tags: After, Night, SleepZombies 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.
Tags: Human, Nature, RaceZombies let us explore notions of the apocalypse - no water, food, medical care, the government imploding - while letting us sleep at night.
Tags: Food, Government, MedicalAny 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.
Tags: Lose, Tell, WaterI think 'G.I. Joe' is a perfect example of how I'm the world's worst businessman. If I were smart, I'd be writing 'World War Z Part 12', but I have to go where the muse leads, and I've always been a huge 'G.I. Joe' fan. I always wanted to know more about these characters, these little plastic figures I played with as a kid.
