"Aaaaaaahhhhh!" Cassie screamed.
"Look out! Lookoutlookoutlooko utlookout!" Jake yelled.
"Would you both shut up?" I demanded. "I'm trying to drive here!"
"Car! Car! Car!" Jake yelled.
I yanked the wheel left. The car sped by, horn blaring. The driver stuck his hand out the window and made a sign with his fingers.
"That's rude," I said. "And totally uncalled for."
BAM!
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
"Oh, it's just a trash can," I said. "Chill out."
BAM!BAM!BAM!
"Okay, so it's four trash cans," I said.
"Get off the sidewalk, you lunatic!" Jake said.
I yanked the wheel to the right. We bumped off the sidewalk, sort of grazed a parked car, and...
BAM! BAM!BAM!
"Do you hate trash cans?" Jake asked. "Is that your problem? Do you just HATE TRASH
CANS?!!"
"I can't drive with you screaming in my ear," I said.
"You can't drive at all!" Jake said.
"Left! Turn left! There, there! Turn left! It's that way," Cassie said, taking time out from screaming.
I turned left. I missed the actual street, but fortunately, the people who lived on that corner did not have any trees in their front yard.
BUMP! Over the curb. BUMP! Rear wheels over the curb. I stepped on the gas and tore across the lawn.
"Cool," I said.
"I'm going to kill you, Marco," Jake said in a weirdly calm voice. "If I survive, I am gonna kill you."
"You said you could drive!" Cassie accused.
I shrugged. Actually, what I had said was I scored millions of points playing Wipeout, this excellent video game. "Okay, so it's not exactly like Wipeout. I'm doing the best I can."

" I was not up for a second round. I did not want my obituary to say: Died from wounds substained while battling a fat house cat.
Marco, The discovery
<Oh, man! Tobias, you're in a toilet!> -Marco
<Tobias, get out of there before someone flushes.> -Jake
<Um...remember how I said it was different when I first landed here? It was light. Now it's dark.> -Tobias
We all considered this new information for a moment.
<Uh, guh-ROSS!> -Marco
<Tobias, I think the reason it got dark is that someone sat down.> -Jake
<Wait. You're saying in a toilet bowl. And someone sat down. But then...oh man.> -Tobias
<Caution: falling objects.> -Marco

"I realized then that there is a very basic difference between Yeerks and humans.
A human will fight even when he knows he can't win. Maybe our species is just a little crazy.
But human history is full of cases where a handful of guys would fight an entire army. They'd get
stomped, but they'd fight anyway."
Totally awesome and inspiring.
-
"Looks are not the important thing. It's what's in your head that counts, and that's what I concentrate on." Rachel- The Visitor. This quote struck me as funny, what with the yeerks and all.
-
"I've never seen anything like this." His voice was low and coaxing. "Hey there, fella. Hey!"
<Hay is for horses,> I retorted. <l am not a horse, though in some aspects I closely resemble one.>
I heard Marco roar with laughter. I did not think the situation particularly humorous.
It took me, like, thirty seconds before I realized KAA had made a dirty joke. ^^()!
-
I don't see how that's dirty, but whatever.

"I guess sometimes you have to choose between smart, sane, ruthlessness, and totally stupid, insane hope. You can't just pick one and stick with it, either. Each time it comes up, you have to try and make your best decision. Most of the time, I guess I have to go with being smart and sane. But I don't want to live in a world where people don't try the stupid crazy, hopeful thing sometimes."
- Jake
(And, of course, the trash cans one is classic.)
-
Coincidentally, I'm in drivers' ed right now, so the trash can one is very appropriate. Also, in school, I'm writing <Hope...> on my desks at school. I also just figured out how to do thought-speak on my phone. But one of my favorites is when Jake is talking to the Andalites during the battle of Leera, and the Andalite says, <I have seen worse princes than this>
-
I forget that one. Might be worth a reread of that book.

I thought that was from #18... are you sure it's from #52?

<Yes. I am going to be sarcastic the rest of the day. I nearly drowned. Now I'm going to go become tge thing that nearly drowned me. I will be sarcastic until further notice.>
~Tobias, book 15
"Did well? Did well? We kicked butt on the meanest gang in the galaxy, whupped Crayak the Big Nasty, saved the Iskoort, which I'm still not sure was a good thing, and planted a little sensitivity time bomb in the Howlers, and that's it? 'Job well done,' and 'Ph, by the way, here's your insides to look at again as we zip through inside-out world'?"

I like that one. It's one of several quotes in the series that actually makes me a little proud of the human race.
-

Hung like a horse?
-
I've heard that saying. I must not remember the context of that part of the book.
-
I can't remember the exact words but it's something like this: "i would like to shuffle my artificial hooves to the music with you, but you can't have my body. Boooody. - Ax.
-
I don't want to be lazy or noobish here... but basically, all of the quotes quoted so far.
The one in my signature, which is the Andalite evening ritual.
And this, which I am almost ashamed to admit I found so funny that... that I'm posting it here:
"Marco," I said, once I had demorphed. "You know you're a toad?"
"Kiss me and I'll become a prince," he said without hesitation. "I'll be The Prince Formerly Known As Toad. You know you want me. You can't help it. After all, you're a female and I'm ... well, I'm me."
