“Max Guevara: Girls kick ass; says so on a t-shirt.”

“Triple T, K A.... time to totally kick ass.”

“Jace: Feels like I just woke up from a bad dream. Max Guevara: I know. One of the reasons why I don't sleep. Let me know if it's a boy or a girl. Jace: Either way, name's gonna be Max.”

“A boy and a girl, dressed in the T-shirts and denim that are the shabby uniform of this age.”

“I didn't think much of men's pajamas, ever. Only Max could make pajamas, even every day, normal pajama bottoms and a t-shirt like the ones he was wearing, look so darned good.”

“If I haven't put that on a T-shirt, I'm going to. Actually, I really don't want to write anything that can't be put on a T-shirt. Actually I'd like to write only on T-shirts. Actually, I'd like to write whole novels on T-shirts. So you guys could say, 'I'm wearing chapter 8 of Lestat's new book, that's my favorite; oh I see you're wearing chapter 6-”
