![]() Author has written 2 stories for Song, and Romance. My all time favorite quote, cue drum roll. "The dinosaurs' extinction wasn't an accident. Barney came and they all committed suicide." Here's some Maximum Ride quotes made by Dragonpurplepearl Max: "Will you quit that?" Gasman: "What does that mean" (points to a sign that says Stay Off the Third Rail!) Fang: "Man, you weigh a freaking ton. What've you been eating, rocks?" Iggy: "Yeah, but what now? We're all dressed up with no place to go" Dr. Martinez: "I take it you don't want me to call your parents?" Agent: “And how do you spell that?” Iggy: “Max? Can I come in?” Max: “What I said yesterday didn’t mean anything! I love everyone in the flock! Plus, it was the Valium talking!” Fang: “Uh-huh. You just keep telling yourself that. You looove me. Pick a tree. I’ll go carve out our initials in it.” Ter Borcht: “Is dere anysing special about you?” Nudge: "Um… I once ate nine Snickers bars in one sitting. Without barfing. That was a record!” Gazzy: “Dive-bomb!” Nudge: “No. I looked for you too. Were you behind the tree?” Max: “Did you leave the flamethrowers lying around again?” Now just some MR quotes. "I know everything, as I continue to remind you." -Fang "I love Nudge, I really do. But that motor mouth of her's could have turned mother Theresa into an Axe murderer" - Max from Maximum Ride "Yes! Freaks RULE!" Fang "'Fang! This is a huge break! Of course we should go check it out!' "I look like prep school Barbie. *looks at Max* Actually, you look like prep school Barbie. I'm just Barbie's friend." Nudge "Captain, like the captain of a ship. And then Terror, you know, T-E-R-O-R." Gasman "You...are...a...fridge...with...wings...we're...freaking...ballet...dancers." Fang "Fang, Fang, Fang. I love you. I love you sooo much." "Oh, jeez." Max and Fang "Pick a tree. I'll go carve our initials in it." Fnick "I'll grab a zebra; Gaz, you fill all the bubbles with your trademark scent. So people are choking and gagging; and let's throw beef jerky in their eyes! Now, that's a plan!" -Iggy "Besides my fashion sense? I play a mean harmonica." Fang "Oh yeah,'cause Fang is all about the wordy sharing of feelings." Max "'Iggy, this is not a democracy," I said understanding his fear but not being able to do anything about it. "It's a Maxocracy.'"-From Max Ride: The Angel Experiment "Ok, so that did me in. Mr. Rock being all emotional? Expressing feelings?..., total flock hug, and I put my head on Fang's shoulder and cried."- Max, MR4 "The one thing I really can't stand is when Max and the others are in pain or upset. Not upset as in angry or teed off, 'cause God knows if that got to me I'd be totally out of luck." -Fang I let my jaw drop open, looking from Iggy to Fang and back, and then Iggy was smiling huge in a way he never does, and Fang was grinning in a way he hardly ever does, and I felt like skipping around like a ballerina, which i promise you, I never, ever do." -Max, MR4 "Iggy I asked again. "How do you feel?" I asked. That left him one option. Fang opened his bleary eyes, scanning the room until he found a clock. Past midnight. Getting yelled at by Max would have to wait until morning. Fang, Book 7 Angel "Holy (insert swear word of your choice here.)"-Fang-MR School's Out Forever "Those wacky Brits called fries 'chips'. And potato chips were 'crisps'. And cookies were 'biscuits'. I had no idea what real biscuits were called. Wangdoodles?" Max-MR Saving The World and Other Extreme Sports "I'm hit, Max. They got me. I guess I'm gonna live fast, die young, and leave a beautiful corpse, huh?" Okay. In my experience, if you're really hit or seriously hurt, you don't say much. -Total and Max-MAX "I vill now destroy de Snickuhs bahs!" -Gazzy-Saving The World and Other Extreme Sports "Have you guys been playing in the toxic waste again? Been bitten by a radioactive spider? Struck by lightning? Drink a super-soldier serum?" -Fang-Final Warning "Your middle name is 'Charging Off.'" -Total-MAX "Optimism is overrated, Max. Its better to face realitly head-on." -The Voice-School's Out Forever "I feel like pudding, Pudding with nerve endings. Pudding in great pain." -Iggy-Angel Experiment The MR Pledge I promise to remember Max, whenever I must lead. You Know You're Obsessed With Maximum Ride When...

Please read-true story (not me) I was walking around in a Target store, when I saw a Cashier hand this little boy some money back. The boy couldn't have been more than 5 or 6 years old. The Cashier said, 'I'm sorry, but you don't have enough money to buy this doll.' Then the little boy turned to the old woman next to him: ''Granny, are you sure I don't have enough money?'' The old lady replied: ''You know that you don't have enough money to buy this doll, my dear.'' Then she asked him to stay there for just 5 minutes while she went to look a round. She left quickly. The little boy was still holding the doll in his hand. Finally, I walked toward him and I asked him who he wished to give this doll to. 'It's the doll that my sister loved most and wanted so much for Christmas. She was sure that Santa Claus would bring it to her.' I replied to him that maybe Santa Claus would bring it to her after all, and not to worry. But he replied to me sadly. 'No, Santa Claus can't bring it to her where she is now. I have to give the doll to my mommy so that she can give it to my sister when she goes there.' His eyes were so sad while saying this. 'My Sister has gone to be with God. Daddy says that Mommy is going to see God very soon too, so I thought that she could take the doll with her to give it to my sister.'' My heart nearly stopped. The little boy looked up at me and said: 'I told daddy to tell mommy not to go yet. I need her to wait until I come back from the mall.' Then he showed me a very nice photo of him where he was laughing. He then told me 'I want mommy to take my picture with her so she won't forget me.' 'I love my mommy and I wish she doesn't have to leave me, but daddy says that she has to go to be with my little sister.' Then he looked again at the doll with sad eyes, very quietly. I quickly reached for my wallet and said to the boy. 'Suppose we check Again, just in case you do have enough money for the doll?'' 'OK' he said, 'I hope I do have enough.' I added some of my money to his with out him seeing and we started to count it. There was enough for the doll and even some spare money. The little boy said: 'Thank you God for giving me enough money!' Then he looked at me and added, 'I asked last night before I went to sleep for God to make sure I had enough money to buy this doll, so that mommy could give It to my sister. He heard me!'' 'I also wanted to have enough money to buy a white rose for my mommy, but I didn't dare to ask God for too much. But He gave me enough to buy the doll and a white rose.'' 'My mommy loves white roses.' A few minutes later, the old lady returned and I left with my basket. I finished my shopping in a totally different state from when I started. I couldn't get the little boy out of my mind. Then I remembered a local news paper article two days ago, which mentioned a drunk man in a truck, who hit a car occupied by a young woman and a little girl. The little girl died right away, and the mother was left in a critical state. The family had to decide whether to pull the plug on the life-sustaining machine, because the young woman would not be able to recover from the coma. Was this the family of the little boy? Two days after this encounter with the little boy, I read in the news paper that the young woman had passed away. I couldn't stop myself as I bought a bunch of white roses and I went to the funeral home where the body of the young woman was exposed for people to see and make last wishes before her burial. She was there, in her coffin, holding a beautiful white rose in her hand with the photo of the little boy and the doll placed over her chest. I left the place, teary-eyed, feeling that my life had been changed for ever. The love that the little boy had for his mother and his sister is still, to this day, hard to imagine. And in a fraction of a second, a drunk driver had taken all this away from him.

This is a true story: Her dad was a drunk, her mom was an addict; Her parents kept her locked in an attic Her only friend was a little toy bear; It was old and worn out And had patches of hair She always talked to it when no one's around; She lays there and hugs it, not a peep of sound Until her parents unlock the door; Some more and more pain, she'll have to endure A bruise on her leg, a scar on her face; Why would she be in such a horrible place? But she grabs her bear and softly cries; She loves her parents but they want her to die She sits in the corner quiet but thinking, "Please God, why is my life always sinking? " Such a bad life For a sad little kid; She'd get beaten and beaten for anything she did Then one night her mom came home high and the poor child was beaten as hours went by Then her mom suddenly grabbed for a blade; It was sharp and pointy, one that she made She thrusted the blade right in her chest, "You deserve to die You worthless piece of s!" The mom walked out leaving the girl slowly dying; She grabbed her bear and again started crying Police showed up at the small little house; Then quickly barged in, everything quiet as a mouse One officer slowly opened a door to find the little girl, lying dead on the floor It must have been bad to go through so much harm; But at least she died with her best friend in her arms (add this to your profile if you're against child abuse) You know you're a writer... -If you talk to yourself. -If you talk to yourself about talking to yourself (i.e. ‘I wonder why I talk to myself so much?’) -If, when you talk to yourself, you sometimes speak as if talking to another person (i.e. ‘Okay, so have you ever noticed that the word ‘deliver’ could mean removing someone’s liver?’) -If, after uttering a profound piece of wisdom like that above, you stare at the cookie in your hand in awe and say, ‘Wow, this is good stuff for sugar highs!’ -If you live off of sugar and caffeine. -If people start to notice that you tend to check your e-mail every day for a week, then suddenly disappear off the face of the planet. -If your e-mails tend to be pages long and incredibly random. -If, when replying to someone else’s e-mail, you are sometimes so random that you fail to address the original message altogether. -If you tend to collect the Bic Stics people leave lying around, kind of like picking pennies off the ground. -If, no matter where you are in your room, you never have to so much as get up to reach a pen/pencil and paper. -If the letters are starting to wear off on the keys of your keyboard. -If people think you might have A.D.D. -If you think it’d be cool to have A.D.D. -If you start constantly talking in third person, past tense. -If you think about making lists like this, and start giggling for no ‘apparent’ reason. -If your friends don’t even bother to look funny at you anymore when you start giggling for no apparent reason. -And finally, the number one way to tell if you’re a good writer: If you worship English 101.

The white man said, "colored people are not allowed here." The black man turned around and stood up. He then said: "Listen Sir... when i was born i was black, when i grew up i was black, when i'm sick i'm black, when i go out in the sun i'm black, when i'm cold i'll be black, and when i die i'll be black. But you sir, when you where born you where pink, when you grew up you where white, when you're sick you're green, when you go out in the sun you turn red, when you're cold you turn blue, and when you die you'll turn purple.

This story touched me… I hope that it has an effect on you too… 16. Get several bouncy balls and throw them down an aisle shouting "pikachu, I choose you!" “My mom only had one eye. I hated her… She was such an embarrassment. She cooked for students & teachers to support the family. There was this one day during elementary school and my mom came. I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me? I threw her a hateful look and ran out. The next day at school: “Your mom only has one eye?!?!”…eeeee said a friend. I wished my mom would just disappear from this world. So I said to my mom, “Mom… Why don’t you have the other eye?! If you’re only gonna make me a laughing stock, why don’t you just die?!!!” My mom did not respond. I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time, it felt good to think that I had said what I’d wanted to say all this time. Maybe it was because my mom hadn’t punished me, but I didn’t think that I had hurt her feelings very badly. That night, I woke up, and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. My mom was crying there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me. I took a look at her, and then turned away. Because of the thing I had said to her earlier, there was something pinching at me in the corner of my heart. Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye. So I told myself that I would grow up and become successful. Then I studied real hard. I left my mother and went to Singapore to study. Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids, too. Now I’m living happily as a successful man I like it here because it’s a place that doesn’t remind me of my mom. This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, when… What?! Who’s this?! It was my mother. Still with her one eye. I felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. Even my children ran away, scared of my mom’s eye. And I asked her, “Who are you?!” “I don’t know you!!!” as if trying to make that real. I screamed at her, “How dare you come to my house and scare my children! GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!” And to this, my mother quietly answered, “Oh, I’m so sorry. I may have gotten the wrong address,” Thank goodness. She doesn’t recognize me. I was quite relieved. I told myself that I wasn’t going to care, or think about this for the rest of my life. Then a wave of relief came upon me. One day, a letter regarding a school reunion came to my house in Singapore. So, lying to my wife that I was going on a business trip, I went. After the reunion, I went down to the old shack, that I used to call a house. Just out of curiosity There, I found my mother fallen on the cold ground. But I did not shed a single tear. She had a piece of paper in her hand. It was a letter to me. “My son. I think my life has been long enough now. And… I wont visit Singapore anymore. But would it be too much to ask if I wanted you to come visit me once in a while? I miss you so much. And I was so glad when I heard you were coming for the reunion. But I decided not to go to the school. For you… And I’m sorry that I only have one eye, and I was an embarrassment for you. You see, when you were very little, you got into an accident, and lost your eye. As a mom, I couldn’t stand watching you having to grow up with only one eye. So I gave you mine. I was so proud of my son that was seeing a whole new world for me, in my place, with that eye. I was never upset at you for anything you did. The couple times that you were angry with me. I thought to myself, ‘It’s because he loves me.’ My son… Oh, my son… “ You Know You're Obsessed With Maximum Ride When... 1.
