HERE It’s- Can I say? It’s like the song of a family where everything’s always all right, it’s a song of belonging that makes you belong just by hearing it, it’s a song that’ll always take care of you and never leave you. If you have a heart, it breaks, if you have a heart that’s broken, it fixes.

When luck ain't with you it's against you. ~pg 92

Schooling ain't life. Ain't it? she says, her eyebrows raising in mock surprise.
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
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
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
