    Shel Silverstein
    “I cannot go to school today"
    Said little Peggy Ann McKay.
    "I have the measles and the mumps,
    A gash, a rash and purple bumps.

    My mouth is wet, my throat is dry.
    I'm going blind in my right eye.
    My tonsils are as big as rocks,
    I've counted sixteen chicken pox.

    And there's one more - that's seventeen,
    And don't you think my face looks green?
    My leg is cut, my eyes are blue,
    It might be the instamatic flu.

    I cough and sneeze and gasp and choke,
    I'm sure that my left leg is broke.
    My hip hurts when I move my chin,
    My belly button's caving in.

    My back is wrenched, my ankle's sprained,
    My 'pendix pains each time it rains.
    My toes are cold, my toes are numb,

    I have a sliver in my thumb.

    My neck is stiff, my voice is weak,
    I hardly whisper when I speak.
    My tongue is filling up my mouth,

    I think my hair is falling out.

    My elbow's bent, my spine ain't straight,
    My temperature is one-o-eight.
    My brain is shrunk, I cannot hear,

    There's a hole inside my ear.

    I have a hangnail, and my heart is ...
    What? What's that? What's that you say?
    You say today is .............. Saturday?

    G'bye, I'm going out to play!”
    Shel Silverstein

    Richelle Mead
    “Did you see that dress?” "I saw the dress.” "Did you like it?” He didn't answer. I took that as a yes. "Am I going to endanger my reputation if I wear it to the dance?” When he spoke, I could barely hear him. "You'll endanger the school.” I smiled and fell asleep.”
    Richelle Mead, Vampire Academy

    Nicholas Sparks
    “Do you want a cookie?
    - What?
    - A cookie. Like an Oreo. Do you want one?
    - No.
    - How can you not want a cookie?
    - I just don't.
    - Okay, fine,let's say you did want a cookie. Let's say you were dying for a cookie, and there were cookies in the cupboard. What would you do?
    - I'd eat a cookie?
    - Exactly. That's all I'm saying.
    - What are you saying?
    - That if people want cookies, they should get a cookie. It's what people do.
    - Let me guess. Dad won't let you have a
    cookie?
    - No. Even though I'm practically starving to death, he won't even consider it. He says I have to have a sandwich first.
    - And you don't think that's fair.
    - You just said you'd get a cookie if you wanted one. So why can't I? I'm not a little kid. I can make my own decisions.
    - Hmm. I can see why this bothers you so
    much.
    - It's not fair. If he wants a cookie, he can have one. If you want a cookie,
    you can have one. But if I want a cookie, the rules don't count. Like you
    said, it's not fair.
    - So what are you going to do?
    - I'm going to eat a sandwich. Because I have to. Because the world isn't fair
    to ten-year-olds.”
    Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song

    “Don’t put your wand there, boy!” roared Moody. “What if it ignited? Better wizards than you have lost buttocks, you know!” “Who d’you know who’s lost a buttock?” the violet-haired woman asked Mad-Eye interestedly. “Never you mind, you just keep your wand out of your back pocket!” growled Mad-Eye. “Elementary wand safety, nobody bothers about it anymore . . .” He stumped off toward the kitchen. “And I saw that,” he added irritably, as the woman rolled her eyes at the ceiling.”

    Rick Riordan
    “Can you surf really well, then?"
    I looked at Grover, who was trying hard not to laugh.
    "Jeez, Nico," I said. "I've never really tried."
    He went on asking questions. Did I fight a lot with Thalia, since she was a daughter of Zeus? (I didn't answer that one.) If Annabeth's mother was Athena, the goddess of wisdom, then why didn't Annabeth know better than to fall off a cliff? (I tried not to strangle Nico for asking that one.) Was Annabeth my girlfriend? (At this point, I was ready to stick the kid in a meat-flavored sack and throw him to the wolves.)”
    Rick Riordan
