More quotes by 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.
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
I'm going to turn fifteen tomorrow, i said, warming to the idea. It's high time. I can't remember when i turned fourteen. (said by Max) If you get to be fifteen, then i get to be fifteen! Iggy sounded indignant. i looked at Fang. Wanna be fifteen? His smile melted me. Yeah.

Let's face it: Most of us don't realize it, but we are failing our kids as reading role models. The best role models are in the home: brothers, fathers, grandfathers mothers, sisters, grandmothers. Moms and dads, it's important that your kids see you reading. Not just books - reading the newspaper is good, too.
James Patterson
I recommend you stick to your own species, Shy Babe. p. 155
James Patterson
Call me crazy, but there's just something cheering about seeing huge raptors tear into Eraser flesh.
James Patterson
The hardest mysteries to solve are the ones you come to near the end, because there isn't enough evidence, not enough to unravel, unless somehow you can go all the way back to the beginning - rewind and replay everything.
James Patterson
I think e-books are terrific in their own right. I love being able to get on a plane and basically carry around seven books and it weigh 10 ounces.
James Patterson
I was breathless, talking as fast as I could. I was afraid if I stopped talking, even for a second, I’d start sobbing again. “Whoa, there.” Fang smiled and reached up, tracing a hand down the side of my face, winding strands of my hair around his fingers. “Stop talking and let me just tell you how great it is to wake up staring at your face. Okay?
James Patterson
You know, I guess I just don't like to talk a lot about sad things. Now you know my flaw. What good does it do to talk about sad things in the past?
James Patterson
SITTING TIGHT? Holing up? Waiting for answers? Those are things I'm not good at. Planning a massive attack against mechanical geeky-like things when i was already furious and itching to kill something? Piece o'cake

Popcorn for breakfast! Why not? It's a grain. It's like grits, but with high self-esteem.
James Patterson
Gazzy: What does that mean? (points to metal plaque warning to stay off the third rail that said Stay off the third rail!) Fang: It means the third rail has seven hundred volts of direct current running through it. Touch it and you're human popcorn.
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
A lot of writers fall in love with their sentences or their construction of sentences, and sometimes that's great, but not everybody is Gabriel Garcia Marquez or James Joyce. A lot of people like to pretend that they are, and they wind up not giving people a good read or enlightening them.
James Patterson
You know things have gone bad when military marches pass for pop music.
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
