Patrick Ness
And then a low and powerful sound rumbles thru the sky, like some giant, deep horn. A sound God would make when he wanted yer attenshun.
Patrick Ness
Viola? Keep calling for me– And I’ll keep searching for you– And I’ll find you– You bet yer life on it– I’ll find you– Keep calling for me, Viola– Cuz here I come.
Patrick Ness
For me it is really important to have a story with blood in the veins, there are bad tempers and good tempers.
Patrick Ness
Stories are the wildest things of all. Stories chase and bite and hunt.
Patrick Ness
So who are you then, Todd Hewitt? he says. What makes you so special? Now that, I think, is a very good asking.
Patrick Ness
And here was a man who lived on belief, but who sacrificed it at the first challenge, right when he needed it most
Patrick Ness
Do you not wonder sometimes, she showed now, sadly, if in some ways they are correct? That we are asking too much of the world?No, he said. They're the ones who are asking for too little.
