Prologue: Death’s First Words in The Book Thief.

Death kicks off with a quirky twist—he sees colors before humans. His wry voice sets an eerie yet human tone for Liesel’s tale.

“First the colors.
Then the humans.
That’s usually how I see things.
Or at least, how I try.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), Page 3

You are going to die….does this worry you?”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 3

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about kindness, Page 3

 

“I could introduce myself properly, but it’s not really necessary. You will know me well enough and soon enough, depending on a diverse range of variables. It suffices to say that at some point in time, I will be standing over you, as genially as possible. Your soul will be in my arms. A color will be perched on my shoulder. I will carry you gently away.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 4

 

“People observe the colors of a day only at its beginnings and ends, but to me it’s quite clear that a day merges through a multitude of shades and intonations with each passing moment. A single hour can consist of thousands of different colors. Waxy yellows, cloud-spot blues. Murky darkness. In my line of work, I make it a point to notice them.”

~Marcus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), Page 4

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about words, Page 80

Rudy’s wild spirit contrasts Liesel’s quiet strength. Death pairs them as rebels without words—yet.

Part Three: Mein Kampf, The Mayor’s Library

Ilsa Hermann’s books stun Liesel with possibility. This haven fuels her word obsession.

“She said it out loud, the words distributed into a room that was full of cold air and books. Books everywhere! Each wall was armed with overcrowded yet immaculate shelving. It was barely possible to see paintwork. There were all different styles and sizes of lettering on the spines of the black, the red, the gray, the every-colored books. It was one of the most beautiful things Liesel Meminger had ever seen.

With wonder, she smiled.

That such a room existed!”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about words and books, Page 134

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death and Rudy Steiner), about books, Page 241

Rudy Steiner Quotes With Page Numbers

An image of Rudy from the Book THief

“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, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 242

This softens Death’s edge. He mourns Rudy, proving even he feels loss.

 

The Gamblers

“Of course, I’m being rude. I’m spoiling the ending, not only of the entire book, but of this particular piece of it. I have given you two events in advance, because I don’t have much interest in building mystery. Mystery bores me. It chores me. I know what happens and so do you. It’s the machinations that wheel us there that aggravate, perplex, interest, and astound me. There are many things to think of. There is much story.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about books, Page 243

 

“It was a Monday and they walked on a tightrope to the sun.”

The Floating Book (Part II)

“How about a kiss, Saumensch?”

He stood waist-deep in the water for a few moments longer before climbing out and handing her the book. His pants clung to him, and he did not stop walking. In truth, I think he was afraid. Rudy Steiner was scared of the book thief’s kiss. He must have longed for it so much. He must have loved her so incredibly hard. So hard that he would never ask for her lips again and would go to his grave without them.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death and Rudy), about books, Page 303

 

Part Six: The Dream Carrier, Death’s Diary: 1942

War burdens Death with souls in 1942. His weariness pairs with surprising care.

“It was a year for the ages, like 79, like 1346, to name just a few. Forget the scythe,…, I needed a broom or a mop. And I needed a vacation. ”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 307

 

“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, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 307

Death debunks myths with sass, showing his weariness. In 2025, it’s a reminder of war’s endless toll.

“You’re a human, you should understand self-obsession.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about humanity, Page 307

 

“They say that war is death’s best friend, but I must offer you a different point of view on that one. To me, war is like the new boss who expects the impossible. He stands over your shoulder repeating one thin, incessantly: ‘Get it done, get it done.’ So you work harder. You get the job done. The boss, however, does not thank you. He asks for more.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 309

“I…” He struggled to answer. “When everything was quiet, I went up to the corridor and the curtain in the livingroom was open just a crack… I could see outside. I watched, only for a few seconds.” He had not seen the outside world for twenty-two months.

There was no anger or reproach.

It was Papa who spoke.

How did it look?”

Humans, if nothing else, have the good sense to die.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about humanity, Page 491

 

THE NINETY-EIGHTH DAY

“Have me,” they said, and there was no stopping them. They were frightened, no question, but they were not afraid of me. It was a fear of messing up and having to face themselves again, and facing the world, and the likes of you.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about fear and death, Page 503

 

Part Ten, The Book Thief, Way Of The Words

Bombs fall, and souls rise in this shattering close. Liesel’s words—and loves—face their final test.

“Max,” she said. He turned and briefly closed his eyes as the girl continued.

There was once a strange, small man,” she said. Her arms were loose but her hands were fists at her side. “But there was a word shaker, too.”

One of the Jews on his way to Dachau had stopped walking now. He stood absolutely still as the others swerved morosely around him, leaving him completely alone. His eyes staggered, and it was so simple. The words were given across from the girl to the Jew. They climbed on to him.

The next time she spoke, the questions stumbled from her mouth. Hot tears fought for room in her eyes as she would not let them out. Better to stand resolute and proud. Let the words do all of it. “Is it really you? the young man asked,” she said. ” Is it from your cheek that I took the seed?”

Max Vandenburg remained standing.

He did not drop to his knees.

People and Jews and clouds all stopped. They watched.

As he stood, Max looked first at the girl and then stared directly into the sky who was wide and blue and magnificent. There were heavy beams– planks of son– falling randomly, wonderfully to the road. Clouds arched their backs to look behind as they started again to move on. “It’s such a beautiful day,” he said, and his voice was in many pieces. A great day to die. A great day to die,like this.

Liesel walked at him. She was courageous enought to reach out and hold his bearded face. “Is it really you, Max?”

Such a brilliant German day and its attentive crowd.

He let his mouth kiss her palm. “Yes, Liesel, it’s me,” and he held the girl’s hand in his face and cried onto her fingers. He cried as the soldiers came and a small collection of insolent Jews stood and watched.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Liesel and Max), about Max, Pages 512-13

 

Confessions

“Hair the color of lemons,'” Rudy read. His fingers touched the words. “You told him about me?”

At first, Liesel could not talk. Perhaps it was the sudden bumpiness of love she felt for him. Or had she always loved him? It’s likely. Restricted as she was from speaking, she wanted him to kiss her. She wanted him to drag her hand across and pull her over. It didn’t matter where. Her mouth, her neck, her cheek. Her skin was empty for it, waiting.

Years ago, when they’d raced on a muddy field, Rudy was a hastily assembled set of bones, with a jagged, rocky smile. In the trees this afternoon, he was a giver of bread and teddy bears. He was a triple Hitler Youth athletics champion. He was her best friend. And he was a month from his death.

Of course I told him about you,” Liesel said.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Rudy and Liesel), Page 518

“I have hated words and I have loved them, and I hope I have made them right.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Liesel Meminger), Page 528

The most important quote in the book. Liesel’s confession sums up her arc—words wound and save her. It’s Zusak’s nod to their double-edged power.

 

The End Of The World (Part II)

 

“His soul sat up. It met me. Those kinds of souls always do – the best ones. The ones who rise up and say “I know who you are and I am ready. Not that I want to go, of course, but I will come.” Those souls are always light because more of them have been put out. More of them have already found their way to other places.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about Hans, Page 531

 

“I carried [Rudy] softly through the broken street…with him I tried a little harder [at comforting]. I watched the contents of his soul for a moment and saw a black-painted boy calling the name Jesse Owens as he ran through an imaginary tape. I saw him hip-deep in some icy water, chasing a book, and I saw a boy lying in bed, imagining how a kiss would taste from his glorious next-door neighbor. He does something to me, that boy. Every time. It’s his only detriment. He steps on my heart. He makes me cry.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death) about Rudy, Page 531

 

“He does something to me, that boy. Every time. It’s his only detriment. He steps on my heart. He makes me cry.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about Rudy, Page 531

 

“Make no mistake, the woman had a heart. She had a bigger one that people would think. There was a lot in it, stored up, high in miles of hidden shelving. Remember that she was the woman with the instrument strapped to her body in the long, moon-slit night.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about Rosa Hubermann, Page 532

 

“I have to say that although it broke my heart, I was, and still am, glad I was there.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about death, Page 533

 

“The tears grappled with her face.

Rudy, please, wake up,…wake up, I love you. Come on, Rudy, come on, Jesse Owens, don’t you know I love you, wake up, wake up, wake up..”

But nothing cared…

She leaned down and looked at his lifeless face and Liesel kissed her best friend, Rudy Steiner, soft and true on his lips. He tasted dusty and sweet.

He tasted like regret in the shadows of trees and in the glow of the anarchist’s suit collection. She kissed him long and soft, and when she pulled herself away, she touched his mouth with her fingers. Her hands were tremblin, her lips were fleshy, and she leaned in once more, this time losing control and misjudging it. Their teeth collided on the demolished world of Himmel Street.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Liesel Meminger), about Rudy and death, Pages 535-36

 

“She leaned down and looked at his lifeless face and Liesel kissed her best friend, Rudy Steiner, soft and true on his lips. He tasted dusty and sweet. He tasted like regret in the shadows of trees and in the glow of the anarchist’s suit collection. She kissed him long and soft, and when she pulled herself away, she touched his mouth with her fingers…She did not say goodbye. She was incapable, and after a few more minutes at his side, she was able to tear herself from the ground. It amazes me what humans can do, even when streams are flowing down their faces and they stagger on…”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about Liesel, Rudy and death, Page 536

 

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

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about Liesel Meminger, Page 537

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Liesel Meminger), about Hans Hubermann, Pages 538-39

 

Thief Epilogue, The Last Color, The Handover Man

Death reflects on Liesel’s life, haunted by humans. These final quotes weigh beauty against brutality.

“I wanted to tell the book thief many things, about beauty and brutality. But what could I tell her about those things that she didn’t already know? I wanted to explain that I am constantly overestimating and underestimating the human race-that rarely do I ever simply estimate it. I wanted to ask her how the same thing could be so ugly and so glorious, and its words and stories so damning and brilliant.”

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death) about good and evil, Page 550

 

“I wanted to explain that I am constantly overestimating and underestimating the human race – that rarely do I even simply estimate it. I wanted to ask her how the same thing could be so ugly and so glorious, and its words and stories so damning and brilliant…I AM HAUNTED BY HUMANS.

~Markus Zusak, The Book Thief, (by Death), about humanity, Page 550

Death’s final line flips the script—we haunt him. It’s a 2025 gut-punch on humanity’s messy glory.
