Earthquakes occur due to brittle failures in the Earth's lithosphere. Brittle failures occur where fractures propagate through the material. So an earthquake is literally the consequence of fracturing or shattering a part of the brittle outer layer of the earth.
It could also be argued that they "shatter" the lives of the people affected by them.
