What was premeditated murder if not calculated leverage?
James Patterson
What test? Asked Nudge. Max, you're incorruptible. Only by power. I said. You haven't tried chocolate yet.
James Patterson
Other than my hundreds of arrests I really don't have that much experience with the law. While the majority of people aren't corrupt, there certainly is an awful lot of corruption in this country.

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
Steve turned to us again, looking so dang enthusastic that I wondered how much coffee he'd had this morning. So, you kids want to be big stars, eh? God, no! I said spewing crumbs. No way! Oddly, this seemed to throw a petite wrench into the convo.
James Patterson
The writing in Mission to Paris, sentence after sentence, page after page, is dazzling. If you are a John le Carr fan, this is definitely a novel for you.

In my office in Florida I have, I think, 30 manuscript piles around the room. Some are screenplays or comic books or graphic novels. Some are almost done. Some I'm rewriting. If I'm working with a co-writer, they'll usually write the first draft. And then I write subsequent drafts.

A guy who hates his job isn't going to be too charming at home.
James Patterson
Angel is right,said Dr. G-H quickly. This is my clumsy way of demonstrating. Demonstrating what? I was barely able to keep a snarl out of my voice. How to get yourself beat up in one easy step?
James Patterson
There's nothing more annoying than cold logic and reason when you've got a good fit going.
James Patterson
Every other person in the world would have looked at it and thought, Max would hate this. It was girly. It was beautiful. It wasn't made of titanium and black leather with spikes on it. But it seemed exactly right, in a weird, heart-fluttery kind of way. And I really loved it.
James Patterson
Do you like to eat things? -I love eating. I list it as a hobby.
James Patterson
The weird, weird thing about devastating loss is that life actually goes on. When you're faced with a tragedy, a loss so huge that you have no idea how you can live through it, somehow, the world keeps turning, the seconds keep ticking.
James Patterson
Do we have any chlorine? It seems to be kind of explosive when mixed with other stuff. Like what, your socks? No, we don't have chlorine. No swimming pool.
James Patterson
My life would never contain a convenient, pain-saving plan when it could stretch a problem out into an endless agony of uncertainty and torture.

I whirled around and saw no one. No psychotic mad scientists, anyway. Jackpot, Max! Jackpot! It was was Fang, and he was giggling hysterically. For those of you just joining us, Fang doesn't giggle. Especially hysterically. So for a second, this seemed like one of the weirder dreams of recent days.
James Patterson
They're afraid of change, and we must change. They're afraid of the young, and we are the young. They're afraid of music, and music is our life. They're afraid of books, and knowledge, and ideas. They're most afraid of our magic.
James Patterson
Okay, that so did me in. Mr. Rock being all emotional? Expressing his feelings? p. 12
James Patterson
When I wanted information, it was silent when I didn't want to hear from it, it got chatty. It was alost as irritating as Fang.
