More quotes by James Patterson
What kind of thoughtless creep would burn a book?
James Patterson
Yes, I sounded like a pathetic weenie. I prefer to think of it as showing my softer side.
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.
James Patterson
I don't know about the rest of you who have little voices, but something about mine made me feel completely compelled to listen to it.
James Patterson
I flipped down the visor so I could check myself in the mirror, and something small and heavy dropped into my lap. I froze, my breath stuck in my throat. What—? Gingerly, I looked down. It wasn’t a grenade. It was a key ring. One key was for this van. I looked at it blankly. “Well, that’ll simplify things,” Fang said.
James Patterson
It gets so tiring, this strong-picking-on-the-weak stuff. It was the story of my life -literally- and it seemed to be a big part of the outside world too. I was sick of it, sick of guys like these, stupid and bullying.
James Patterson
Max: Okay guys, I had a couple thoughts I wanted to go over with you. Iggy: (pretends to snore loudy) Max: (throws another pinecone at him) Iggy: Quit throwing things at me! Max: Glad you could join us.
James Patterson
You're my best friend, my first and only love, and the most beautiful girl I've ever seen
James Patterson
A friend of mine once defined love as finding someone you can talk to late into the night
James Patterson
The receptionist looked us over, then went back to typing something incredibly urgent—like her résumé́ for another job.
James Patterson
You love me this much.
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.
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
Fang felt a cold jolt, then dismissed it. Max wasn’t dead. He would know, somehow. He would have felt it. The world still felt the same to him therefore, Max was still in it.
James Patterson
Max, you're acting like a child, the Voice said. You're above rebelling against your fate just to rebel. You've got a date with destiny. Don't be late. I brushed some hair out of my eyes. Is that a movie quote? Or is it an actual date? I don't remember destiny asking me. I never even gave destiny my phone number.
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
Am I tough? Am I strong? Am I hard-core? Absolutely. Did I whimper with pathetic delight when I sank my teeth into my hot fried-chicken sandwich? You betcha.
James Patterson
If you want to write for yourself, get a diary. If you want to write for your friends, get a blog. If you want to write for others...become an author.
James Patterson
Meaning what? We're going to pretend nothing's going on? That's stupid. The only way to deal with any of this is to get it out in the open. Have you been watching Oprah again?
