More quotes by Patrick Ness
To live is to fight, to preserve life is to fight everything that man stands for.
Patrick Ness
Here is the boy, drowning.
Patrick Ness
Stories don’t always have happy endings.
Patrick Ness
Stories are the wildest things of all. Stories chase and bite and hunt.
Patrick Ness
Stories don't always have happy endings. This stopped him. Because they didn't, did they? That's one thing the monster had definitely taught him. Stories were wild, wild animals and went off in directions you couldn't expect.
Patrick Ness
The sound when we crash is so loud it's almost impossible.
Patrick Ness
And too much informayshun can drive a man mad. Too much informayshun becomes just Noise. And it never, never stops.
Patrick Ness
Life ain't fair. It ain't. Not never. It's pointless and stupid and there's only suffering and pain and people who want to hurt you. You can't love nothing or no one cuz it'll all be taken away or ruined and you'll be left alone and constantly having to fight, constantly having to run just to stay alive.
Patrick Ness
War makes monsters of men, you once said to me Todd. Well, so does too much knowledge. Too much knowledge of your fellow man, too much knowledge of his weakness, his pathetic greed and vanity, and how laughably easy it is to control him.
Patrick Ness
That's what librarians do. They open up the world. Because knowledge is useless if you don’t know how to find it, if you don’t even know where to begin to look.
Patrick Ness
Francia don’t look too convinced. I never seen arms so crossed.
Patrick Ness
In this world of numbness and information overload, the ability to feel, my boy, is a rare gift indeed.
Patrick Ness
Librarians open up the world. Knowledge is useless if you don't even know where to begin to look. How much more can you discover when someone can point you in the right direction, when someone can maybe even give you a treasure map, to places you may not have even thought you were allowed to go? This is what librarians do.
Patrick Ness
Stories don’t end with the writers, however many started the race.
Patrick Ness
Being a leader is making the people you love hate you a little more each day.
Patrick Ness
People say they want freedom, but what they really want is freedom from worry. If I take care of their problems, they don't mind being told what to do.
Patrick Ness
Everything that's happened has brought me here, to this place, with this knife in my hand, and something worth saving.
Patrick Ness
Knowledge is dangerous. ~pg 53
Patrick Ness
Your mind will believe comforting lies while also knowing the painful truths that make those lies necessary. And your mind will punish you for believing both.
Patrick Ness
And it hurts her, but it's an okay hurt, but it hurts still, but it's good, but it hurts.
