Your mind creates your reality. If you expect nothing, you open up the universe to give you options. If you expect the worst, you usually get it.
James Patterson
I'm a freaking princess when it comes to other people's feelings. Yo dogbreath, get your paws of the everglades. -Max
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
For me, Zoo has always been a fable. It has nothing to do with realism. It's a fable about what man is doing to the world, and the animals have retribution. But in the real world, this would not happen. But in the world of 1984, this kind of thing can happen in a story.
James Patterson
They [Erasers] were bad fliers, Angel chimed in, And in their minds, they weren't all kill the mutants, like they usually are. They were like, remember to flap!
James Patterson
Never underestimate the power of funny, it moves mountains.

My name is Daniel, and this is the first volume of my life story, which, hopefully, will be a very long and distinguished one. Who should you read it? Very good question. Maybe because this is your planet, and you have a right to know what's actually happening on it.
James Patterson
When I write I pretend I'm telling a story to someone in the room and I don't want them to get up until I'm finished.

I'm big on having a blistering pace. That's one of the hallmarks of what I do, and that's not easy. I never blow up cars and things like that, so it's something else that keeps the suspense flowing. I try not to write a chapter that isn't going to turn on the movie projector in your head.
James Patterson
Time for bed.” I held my fist out. One by one, my flock stacked theirs on top, and then we headed up into the trees to sleep the sleep of the innocent. Well, okay, maybe not so innocent. But the sleep of the much less guilty than others, for sure.
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
Denial is not just a river in Egypt.
James Patterson
what was fang going to do BLOG about max throwing herself into space so she wouldn't have to kiss him again? NO instead he smashed his fist against the cave wall then grimaced at the pain and stupidity seeing his bloodied knuckles
James Patterson
What are you guys doing? If you anted me to take a shower, all you had to do was pay me ten bucks, like you usually do
James Patterson
I recommend you stick to your own species, Shy Babe. p. 155

Love means you can never be apart.
James Patterson
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.
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
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.
