Quotes by Christopher Meades (?)

“In a moment of panic, he reached back and grasped the large punch bowl, still three quarters full of bright red juice and an assortment of fruit slices. He lifted it above his head and threatened the growing crowd.

"Stand back," he said. "I will splash you all.”
― Christopher Meades, The Last Hiccup
