Book 5-The Predator "My name is Marco." "Lots of people think only humans fight wars.  That only humans are murderous.  Let me tell you something--compared to ants, human beings are full of nothing but peace, love, and understanding." --Marco "The author said, 'If ants had nuclear weapons, they would probably end the world in a week.'  He's wrong.  It wouldn't take them that long." --Marco <Joe Andalite, you've won the Superbowl!  Now where are you going? I'm going to Earth to turn into a lobster!> <I don't understand.> --Marco, Ax <My people have a saying--Grace is the acceptance of the inevitable.> --Ax <Battle!>, Ax said, sounding like he was announcing a party. --Marco <Jake?> <Yeah, Marco?> <No one ever finds out.  No one can ever know.> <Okay, Marco.> <My mother died two years ago tomorrow.> <That's how it will be, my friend.> <Yeah.  But someday...> <Someday, Marco.> --Marco, Jake
