“You have something on your neck,” he observed. Alec’s hand flew to his throat. “What?” “Looks like a bite mark,” said Jace. “What have you been doing all day, anyway?” “Nothing.” Beet red, his hand still clamped to his neck, Alec started down the corridor. Jace followed him. “I went walking in the park. Tried to clear my head.” “And ran into a vampire?” “What? No! I fell.” “On your neck?”

“Comparaciones Agobia más que Darth Vader con un megáfono. Baja más rápido que Tarzán con vaselina en las lianas. Canta peor que el pato Donald comiendo polvorones. Chupa más que Drácula con una esponja. Da más vueltas que la bailarina de Dirty Dancing. Da más vueltas que el Monstruo de Tazmania. Entretiene más que una manifestación de payasos. Era un perro tan inteligente que cuando le gritaban "ATAQUE", el perro se tiraba al piso y le agarraban convulsiones. Esa película de Karate tenía más llaves que el mayordomo de Batman. Es más abierta que el agujero de ozono. Es más aburrido que choque de tortugas. Es más aburrido que el Hombre invisible haciendo sombras chinescas.”

“goofy Goosebumps books.”
― Sharon M. Draper, Out of My Mind

“For me, the inside wires that connect to my physical body are sort of like the ones inside that fixture. They’re pretty much fried. But the wires to my brain—ah! Absolutely, exceptionally excellent! And that made me think about how here at camp, no one was doing what so many people I’ve met seem to do. Lots of folks still have a tendency to just look at me from the outside. They notice the wheelchair and the head wobbling and the fact that my hands just can’t hold still. I drool sometimes—which, yes, is totally embarrassing. Folks don’t often look deep enough to see the kid who knows the names of every single bone in the human body. I’m almost twelve, but I read on a twelfth-grade level. Lots of that is thanks to Mrs. V, who never saw me as unplugged, but only saw my power.”
― Sharon M. Draper, Out of My Heart
