Fang was going to kill me. And after I was dead, he would kill me again.
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
Who, last time I'd checked, was still on our official archenemy list. (Yes, we have to keep a list. It's kind of sad.)

James Patterson
It’s wherever you are. If it’s tapped into any of your senses, it knows where you are and what you’re doing.” Oh no, I thought, my spirits sinking. I hadn’t considered that. Did that mean nothing I did was ever anymore? “Even in the bathroom?” the Gasman’s eyes widened with surprise.
James Patterson
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
Everything I loved was taken away from me, and I did not die.
James Patterson
Our parents were a test tube and a turkey baster.
James Patterson
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
I want to do it too! (sitting motionless) Nudge: Nope, you stand out like a fart in a church. Max: (muttering) Appropriately enough. Iggy: What about me? (stands still) Max: No, you're visible. Iggy: Am not! Max: (throws a pinecone at him) Could I do that if I wouldn't see you?
James Patterson
