More quotes by James Patterson
There are terrific models for success with reluctant readers, but many school systems and state governments need to set aside their 'not invented here' and 'we have more important problems than education' attitudes.
James Patterson
He grinned at me so unexpectedly I forgot to flap for a second and dropped several feet. You looove me, he crooned smugly. Holding his arms out wide, he added, You love me this much.
James Patterson
Tears were dripping onto my dress, but I wasn't making any sound. There was no sound to express thid kind of pain. I didn't want to move, didn't want to do anything. Fang was not waiting for me out in the living room. Tomorrow morning, when I woke up, Fang would still be gone.
James Patterson
They turned to Angel. We will call you Little One, the leader said, obviously deciding to dispense with the whole confusing name thing. Okay, said Angel agreeably. I'll call you Guy in a White Lab Coat. He frowned. That can be his Indian name, I suggested.

I don't get a chance to be funny with the thrillers. I like to be funny, and I think I am really funny. So with 'Middle School: The Worst Years of My Life', it was fun to let loose.
James Patterson
She didn't flirt with him, but they hung out together a lot, and every time I saw their heads bent over a computer screen or map, it made my stomach clench. And my teeth. And my fists.
James Patterson
If Fang is in any way harmed while I'm gone-if he gets a hangnail-you won't see another morning. Are we clear on that?
James Patterson
It's so strange. Everything can be going alone just great, and then one day, whack, you're blindsided-- a lousy, crammy blow you didn't see coming.
James Patterson
I'm a very good storyteller I have a lot of compassion for people. That's very useful for a novelist. A lot of novelists are snots. They're just mean people. I'm not a terribly skilled stylist, nor do I want to be. I want a lot of people to read one of my stories and go, 'That was pretty cool.'
James Patterson
So Fnick, can I change channel? Iggy asked. There's a game on. Make yourself at home, Figgy. Fang said.
James Patterson
He [Iggy] started reaching for things around the table, and his hand landed on Total. “You’re black.” “I prefer canine-American,” said Total.
James Patterson
I won’t lie to you—it was hilarious. Yes, we were in trouble, yes, this was a disaster, and so one and so forth, but I have to say, seeing those upturned faces, the looks, was bout the best thing that happened to us since we’d come to New York.
James Patterson
Do you know how fast you were going? Fang looked at the speedometer...No, he said truthfully. I tagged you at seventy miles per hour,she said, pulling out a clipboard. I let out an impressed whistle. Excellent! I never thought we'd be that fast. Fang shot me a look and I put my hand over my mouth.
James Patterson
I'm way hot, he muttered. But I don't feel sick. Just — way hot. Fang
James Patterson
Dear God, said Nudge under her breath, I want real parents. But I want them to want me too. I want them to love me. I already love them. Please see what you can do. Thanks very much. Love, Nudge. Okay, so I'm not saying we were pros at this or anything. (Max thoughts)
James Patterson
But then we have to leave, have to. It's always been that way, and it will always be that way, Jane. That's just.. how it works
James Patterson
Fang was going to kill me. And after I was dead, he would kill me again.
James Patterson
Tell me again what we're doing here, I said, running a continuous scan of our surroundings. Fang popped some Cracker Jack into his mouth. We're here to watch manly men do manly things. I followed Fang's line of sight: He was watching the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, who were not doing manly things, by any stretch of the imagination.
James Patterson
A guy who hates his job isn't going to be too charming at home.
James Patterson
I have a number of writers I work with regularly. I write an outline for a book. The outlines are very specific about what each scene is supposed to accomplish.
