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.

More quotes by James Patterson
One of the interesting things about YA books - I don't know about Percy Jackson, but I do know about 'Twilight' and 'Maximum Ride': There are a lot of adult readers. In fact, we released 'Maximum Ride' both as a paperback for kids and as a mass release for adults.
James Patterson
Yeah sure, why not? i said, making a mental note to get a good look at his wings. For all I knew, they were remote-controlled and duct taped to his back.
James Patterson
We went back to the weird Institute building. At night there was a lot more activity. Erasers coming in non-stop. Nice cars, nice clothes, nice smug faces (that I wanted to smash!). -Fang's Blog
James Patterson
Iggy. This is not a democracy, I said,(...)It's a Maxocracy.
James Patterson
Yes!” said Fang, punching the air. “Freaks rule.
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
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
I gave him a kick and he stepped back onto the third rail. Exploding, flaming eraser! This is why moms tell you to stay away from the third rail, but it sure came in handy this time.
James Patterson
Louisiana, the state road maintenance forgot.
James Patterson
If by 'miracle kids' you mean innocent test-tube babies whose DNA was forcibly unraveled and merged with two percent avian genes, yeah, I guess that would be us, I said. Because it's a miracle that we're not complete nut jobs and mutant disasters.
James Patterson
Was this normalcy-predictable patterns, the certainty of doing the same thing everyday? Because if so, normalcy was about to make me freak out and start screaming.
James Patterson
I don't think of myself as a writer.
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
Oh no! Don't drag us away from Antartica and take us to the playground of the rich and famous! Not that briar patch! -Max
James Patterson
Why, the little Voice inside my head, of course. You mean you don't have one? I did.
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
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
Okay, if this is what falling in love feels like, someone please kill me now. (Not literally, overzealous readers.) But it was all too much - too much emotion, too much happiness, too much longing, perhaps too much ice cream.
James Patterson
Fang was going to kill me. And after I was dead, he would kill me again.
James Patterson
Fang (sarcasticaly): Go pick out a tree and I'll carve our initials in it. Max: (screams and goes in the bathroom)
