“Defeat is most devastating at the moment of victory" Saint Dane”
― D.J. MacHale, The Never War

“In my few short years I learned that seeing what's positive about a situation is a lot more fun and gets you a lot further than looking for what might be wrong with it.”
― D.J. MacHale, The Lost City of Faar

“I saw the horrible way that people could treat each other. That may be the saddest thing of all. I saw greed and anger and murder and a total lack of concern for human life. It was a wicked side of the human soul that I saw... and it saddened me to know that such a dark place existed.”
― D. J. MacHale

“I felt as if I learned a few things. I learned that it's sometimes okay to think like a weenie, so long as you don't act like one—at least not all the time. I learned that it's okay to be wrong, as long as you can admit it and are willing to listen to those who may know better.”
― D.J. MacHale, The Merchant of Death
