More quotes by James Patterson
I'm a very good storyteller I have a lot of compassion for people. That's very useful for a novelist. A lot of novelists are snots. They're just mean people. I'm not a terribly skilled stylist, nor do I want to be. I want a lot of people to read one of my stories and go, 'That was pretty cool.'
James Patterson
Why, the little Voice inside my head, of course. You mean you don't have one? I did.

Why do things this beautiful make me want to cry? I asked Michael as I leaned into him. It was an unguarded question, one I'd never have asked of Hugh. I don't know, said Michael. Maybe beauty, true beauty, is so overwhelming, it goes straight to our hearts. Maybe it makes us feel emotions that are locked away inside.

Now, Max, I think we both know your parents aren't missionaries. I opened my eyes wide. No? Well, for God's sake, don't tell them. They'd be crushed. Thinking they're doing the Lord's work and all.

In case you guys didn't catch last week's episode, I'm out of the flock, I informed them. Angel has no allegiance to me. She's wanted me gone for a long time. And in case you didn't catch all the episodes from the past year, Angel is... unbalanced. Untrustworthy, Fang seconded. Unpredictable, Jeb added. Dangerous, Dylan chimed in
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
What test? Asked Nudge. Max, you're incorruptible. Only by power. I said. You haven't tried chocolate yet.
James Patterson
In a manner of speaking. As we intend for you to found a dynasty. And that dynasty will rule society until it has progressed enough to- Overthrow the dynasty in a revolutionary, blood filled coup! Iggy said eagerly. We all looked at him. Just saying. He sheepishly took a bite of cookie.
James Patterson
My choices were to either give in and let them kill all of us or fight back with everything I had. I chose the second one, ’cause I’m just funny that way.
James Patterson
So Fnick, can I change channel? Iggy asked. There's a game on. Make yourself at home, Figgy. Fang said.

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
Jeez, was that a lion? Please tell me it’s behind bars. It’s a zoo, Iggy,” Nudge said, taking his arms and leading him. Everything’s behind bars.
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
Fang swerved closer to me, big and supremely graceful, like a black panther with wings. Oh, God. I'm so stupid. Forget I just said that. He needs a Band-Aid, I said. A look passed between me and Fang, full of suppressed humor, relief, understanding,love — Forget I said that too. I don't know what's wrong with me.

Great, they give blind kids guns, I said, trying to lessen his horror. I don't even let Iggy have a gun. Usually.
James Patterson
You love him so much it feels like you can't go on without him. You feel like you might die without him.
