More quotes by Patrick Ness
But,' he thinks, 'it's possible to die before you die.
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
Hope may be the thing that pulls you forward, may be the thing that keeps you going, but that it's dangerous, that it's painful and risky, that it's making a dare in the world and when has the world ever let us win a dare?
Patrick Ness
So the good prince was a murderer and the evil queen wasn't a witch after all.

Patrick Ness
We all fall but that's not what matters. What matters is picking yourself up again.
Patrick Ness
Yer the only friend I got, pigpiss... Ain't that the biggest tragedy you ever heard?
Patrick Ness
The monster showed up just after midnight. As they do.
Patrick Ness
A thing worth learning is worth learning well.
Patrick Ness
Guessing a thing ain't knowing a thing.
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
Limitations can be hugely creative and hugely inspiring - so long as they are the ones you choose for yourself.
Patrick Ness
That's what I want as a reader - I want to be confident that the book will do its job.
Patrick Ness
Here's what I think, I say and my voice is stronger and thoughts are coming, thoughts that trickle into my noise like whispers of truth. I think maybe everybody falls, I say. I think maybe we all do. And I don't think that's the asking. I pull on her arms gently to make sure she's listening. I think the asking is whether we get back up
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
It was solitude, but it was solitude that wasn't lonely. Solitude that could sort things out. And he hadn't had that in ages.
Patrick Ness
