“But a knife ain't just a thing, is it? It's a choice, it's something you do. A knife says yes or no, cut or not, die or don't. A knife takes a decision out of your hand and puts it in the world and it never goes back again. ”
― Patrick Ness, The Knife of Never Letting Go

― Patrick Ness, A Monster Calls

“To say you have no choice is to relieve yourself of responsibility.”
― Patrick Ness, Monsters of Men
