Max Brooks's quotes

  • [re father Mel Brooks] I've no desire to become the next king of Jewish immigrant comics, but I am so proud of my old man.
  • My rule is that whatever I write has to start with its first fan, which is me, I have to love it, because if I don't love it then it's not worth doing.
  • If you were a vampire you're at the top of the food chain, and you've been spoiled. You're essentially the aristocracy. You have all these gifts: speed, strength, immortality and anonymity.
  • I'm a really crappy liar. That's one of the reasons my wife married me because she knows I can never have an affair.
  • [re dyslexia in grade school] 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.'
  • [re mother Anne Bancroft] Life is not fair, I'll tell you that. It was hard for her to be a mom, to give up all that and to try and raise me, because she didn't have much of a mom. But she did it. She did an amazing job.
  • Shaun of the Dead (2004) is an amazing zombie movie but it's also an amazing cultural essay of who Britain was at that point. I think it's sort of the Clerks (1994) of Britain. Real emotions, real drama... I mean, what a movie.
  • [on Zombieland (2009)] They weren't zombies. It was like some weird mad cow disease.
