More quotes by Ernest Cline
I never ran out of ammo, because each time I fired a round, a new round was teleported into the bottom of the clip. My bullet bill this month was going to be huge.
Ernest Cline
I've retroactively made all that wasted time rotting my brain into research. It makes me a hypocrite when I try to tell my own daughter, I don't know, I think we've played a little too much Mario.

Ernest Cline
It's so much better to hand over a finished book than having all these people waiting.
Ernest Cline
I felt like a kid standing in the world's greatest video arcade without any quarters, unable to do anything but walk around and watch the other kids play.
Ernest Cline
I burned through all of my extra lives in a matter of minutes, and my two least-favorite words appeared on the screen: GAME OVER.
Ernest Cline
Everybody has this fond association with the car from Back to the Future, but most people have never seen one. I've seen people drive off the berm trying to take pictures. It ends up being dangerous.
Ernest Cline
Going outside is highly overrated.
Ernest Cline
As far as my house, I have a ton of video games and three or four old consoles.
Ernest Cline
I was obsessed. I wouldn't quit. My grades suffered. I didn't care.
