About This Quote

This quote from Gabriel García Márquez is so beautiful because it captures how he felt, and is so powerful when you read about the rain in his life. He dreamed of rain, but he never got to live his dream. He didn't live long enough to see the rains fall upon him just as he wanted. And that's sad.
