| 93ab3b1 | Probeer je te suggereren dat ik wel eens buiten mijn boekje ga?' vroeg Holly, die van het idee alleen blijkbaar al gruwelde. Foaly gniffelde. 'Ik probeer te suggereren dat je misschien niet zelf een exemplaar van het boekje hebt en dat je het, mocht je er wel een hebben, in elk geval nog nooit hebt opengedaan. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 7ba2810 | Ja, dat begrijpen we,' zei Artemis. 'Hoe lang duurt het voor je de betovering geformuleerd hebt?' Nr. 1 beet even op zijn lip. 'Ongeveer net zo lang als jullie tweeen nodig hebben om jullie kleren uit te trekken.' 'Gadver,' zei Artemis, die zich bijna verslikte van verbazing. 'D'Arvit,' vloekte Holly. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 9c25382 | Artemis en Holly stonden in hun ondergoed naast elkaar en haakten voorzichtig hun vingers ineen... 'Dan verklaar ik jullie hierbij... | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 3a4e0ea | Jon Spiro had not hired Pex and Chips for their debating skills. In the job interview, they had only been set one task. A hundred applicants were handed a walnut and asked to smash it however they could. Only two succeeded. Pex had shouted at the walnut for a few minutes, then flattened it between his giant palms. Chips had opted for a more controversial method. He placed the walnut on the table, grabbed his interviewer by the ponytail, and.. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 9f9e5cc | Holly... Je hebt me wederom gered.' ... 'Natuurlijk heb ik je gered,' zei ze. 'Ik kan toch niet zonder je? | Eoin Colfer | ||
| f5d97a8 | Friese boeren eten alle dagen grauwe capucijners. - Butler | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 725c7f5 | Ik weet het nog goed,' begon Wurm melodramatisch. 'Het was een donkere nacht. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| b91a533 | Ik heb een speciale klus voor je, Ge.' ... 'Is dit zo'n klus waarbij je een grote beloning krijgt als je het goed doet?' 'Nee,' antwoordde Carla. 'Dit is zo'n klus waarbij je een pijnlijke beloning krijgt als je het verkeerd doet.' Turf zuchtte. Was er dan nooit meer eens iemand aardig? | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 9a1d602 | Root was blij dat hij iemand had tegen wie hij kon schreeuwen. 'Bek houden, veroordeelde! | Eoin Colfer | ||
| b519f37 | Artemis kneep in de brug van zijn neus. 'Je hebt natuurlijk gelijk. Ik ben hier het meesterbrein. Het denkwerk is mijn verantwoordelijkheid, niet de jouwe.' Holly keek hem met samengeknepen ogen wantrouwend aan. 'Was dat een belediging, Modderjongen? | Eoin Colfer | ||
| e87a83c | Who are you talking to, McGuire? Because you couldn't be talking to me. Not in that tone. | leader respect | Eoin Colfer | |
| 18b143f | Fowl! Aan de voet! - Holly, tegen Artemis | Eoin Colfer | ||
| fba63d8 | Ik weet waar dit allemaal om te doen is, Opal.' 'O, is dat zo?' 'Ja. Je bent nog steeds beledigd omdat ik op de universiteit de medaille voor natuurwetenschappen gewonnen heb'... Foaly grijnsde voldaan. Ook al zag het er nog zo beroerd uit, hij was toch nog in staat het allerirritantste wezen onder de wereld te zijn, als hij dat wilde. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| f2d8181 | Nou ja, u moet het zo zien: hoeveel betekenen uw ribben voor u?' 'Waarom?' 'Ik denk dat ik een manier weet om u eruit te krijgen.' 'Hoe dan?' 'Dat zou ik u kunnen vertellen, maar u zult het niet leuk vinden.' 'Zeg op, kapitein. En dat is een bevel.' Holly vertelde het hem. En hij vond het niet leuk. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| f8f33cc | Mooi schot.'... Artemis stak haar de munt toe. 'Nee,' zei Holly. 'Hou hem maar. Om je te helpen herinneren... dat er diep onder die lagen onbetrouwbaarheid toch nog een vonkje fatsoen is. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 9891867 | Myishi will kick Phonetix's butt next quarter. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 9c50449 | Maybe I'm just gonna kill you," says Mike, peeved at being predictable. "You ever think of that?" "No, Mike. Because if you wanted me dead, then four or five of your guys would be in the hospital and I'd have a flesh wound. Maybe." | crime-fiction satire | Eoin Colfer | |
| 4db6bb6 | Wat is dat?' vroeg Holly en wees naar een grijzige vlek op de hoofdsteun van de stoel. Foaly schuifelde ongemakkelijk heen en weer. 'Eh... hersenvloeistof, denk ik. Bij de laatste opdracht hadden we een lek in de druk. Maar dat is nu verholpen. En de agent heeft het overleefd. Wel met een iets lager IQ, maar hij leeft en hij kan nog steeds vocht binnenhouden.' 'Nou, gelukkig maar,' mompelde Holly sarcastisch. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 5d7e26e | It is like the old fairy tale. The boy saves the princess; they fall in love. He invents a flying machine--along with his dashing teacher, of course. They get married and name their firstborn after the aforementioned dashing teacher." Conor frowned. "I don't recall that fairy tale from the nursery." "Trust me, it's a classic." | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 897c30b | Butler glimlachte. Een haai die een blote kont ziet. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 7bc901b | Opal Koboi. Ik wist wel dat er nog een psychotisch element aan dit reisje ontbrak. - Holly | Eoin Colfer | ||
| e0a18c8 | Humm humm haa. Rahmumm humm haa,' chantte Opal ter afronding. 'Vrede in mij, verdraagzaamheid om mij heen, vergeving op mijn pad. Goed Mervall, laat maar zien waar die smerige mens zit, zodat ik hem zijn eigen organen kan laten opvreten. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 80cd7fb | Catherine Broekhart stepped in from the balcony, where she had been waiting, and joined the embrace. The guard at the door was tempted, but decided against it. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| ef002d6 | Holly's mouth was a tight line as she shook her head. "Navy rules, Butler. You're on my boat, you follow my orders." "As I remember, I brought the boat." "Yes, thanks for bringing my boat." | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 61dc672 | Constance Lane tried to frown, but there wasn't enough slack skin across her brow. | plastic-surgery | Eoin Colfer | |
| bf91d40 | Lia Fail | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 48900b8 | He needed a plan. Something audacious and brilliant. Something that had never been attempted before. Artemis was not unduly worried on that front. His brain had never let him down before. | genius planning | Eoin Colfer | |
| 5dde4c6 | Artemis did not rise to the forge-a-relationship lure that Adamsson had tossed out. He did not have room in his life for yet another friend that he didn't trust. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 88c989a | On his way though the lobby minutes later, Artemis was highly amused to overhear several audience members gushing over the unorthodox direction of the opera's final scene. The exploding lamp, mused one buff, was doubtless a metaphor for Norma's own falling star. But no, argued a second. The lamp was obviously a modernistic interpretation of the burning stake which Norma was about to face. , thought Artemis as he pushed through the crowd to .. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 38c216d | The man was an animal. Base and foul. In a just world he would be the prisoner and Conor a free man. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| ccb79be | The ripple effects of young Opal's murder in the corner of a field were more widespread than even Artemis could have imagined, though in truth is the wrong verb, as Artemis Fowl was not in the habit of imagining anything. Even as a small boy, he had never nurtured daydreams of himself on horseback fighting dragons. What Artemis preferred to do was visualize an achievable objective and then work toward that goal. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 1959ee8 | Miss Paradizo," he said gently. "Minerva. Listen to me for a few moments--you will feel the truth of what I say." Minerva tutted. "Why is that? Because we're connected?" "Actually, we are. We are similar people. Both the most intelligent person in whatever room we happen to be in. Both constantly underestimated. Both determined to shine brightest in whichever discipline we pursue. Both dogged by scorn and loneliness." "Ridiculous," scoffed .. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 7b88600 | Foaly was well aware that he was babbling about hoof drawings in order to distract himself from the current situation. He had often assisted Holly through one crisis or another. But he had rarely been in the field to actually witness these crises occurring. The video logs never really capture the emotion, he thought. I am scared out of my wits right now, but no helmet-cam footage can convey that. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 10e406f | What are you? are you? I thought you shared Artemis's memories. How can you be so stupid?" Orion was unperturbed. "I share everything. Memories and movies are as real as each other to me. You, Peter Pan, the Loch Ness Monster, me. It's all real, maybe." | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 52f0491 | Tell me,' Artemis said, his voice still weak. 'How do I know you?' And so Holly began her story: 'It all started in Ho Chi Minh City one summer. It was sweltering by anyone's standards. Needless to say, Artemis Fowl would not have been willing to put up with such discomfort if something extremely important had not been at stake. Important to the plan ... | Eoin Colfer | ||
| fb190f8 | There never was anyone like Artemis Fowl, he thought. Though he didn't make my job any easier with all his shenanigans. Butler smiled. Artemis always had my back, even though he could barely reach it. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 6cd5ef8 | Eoin Colfer | |||
| b8434f7 | Ik was vroeger altijd zo dol op Pip en Kip. - Foaly | Eoin Colfer | ||
| fd3eb64 | Ze kunnen het huis niet binnengaan voor Fowl dood is. Het is een soort extreme allergische reactie. Dat betekent, geloof het of niet, dat betekent...' 'Dat ze het hebben gered,' maakte Holly zijn zin af. 'Hij leeft. Artemis Fowl leeft.' 'D'Arvit,' kreunde Root, en hij kwakte nog een portie kots op de terracotta tegels. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 6448b53 | Butler had an excuse for not being in Iceland that would hold up in any court of law and possibly even on a note for teacher. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 45dd950 | Angeline, distraught over her son's obsession and afraid of the effects of the past year on Artemis's mind, signed her thirteen-year-old up for treatment with the school counselor. You have to feel sorry for him. The counselor, that is. | counseling genius | Eoin Colfer | |
| 2fda848 | ARTEMIS was making final preparations in his office, updating his will and trying to master his feelings, tamping down a flat grey sky of sadness that threatened to cloud his resolve. He knew that Doctor Argon would advise him against bottling up his emotions as it would lead to psychological scarring in the long term. But there will be no long term, Doctor, he thought wryly. After so many adventures Artemis felt he should have known that t.. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 968ad6e | At his shoulder, Arno Blunt continued staring at Butler. The Fowl bodyguard blinked freely: in the event of confrontation, dry eyeballs would only lessen his advantage. Staring matches were for amateurs. | Eoin Colfer | ||
| 87ac65a | Maybe you read my article in ?" "I never read press. You start believing it, you see..." | Eoin Colfer |
