Your trusting idiocy knows no bounds

Funerals are for the living, Jace, not for the dead.

There was something peculiarly gratifying about shouting in a blind rage until your words ran out. Of course, the aftermath was less pleasant. Once you’d told everyone you hated them and not to come after...

One did not turn down an invitation from Saint Cloud. At least, one didn’t if one wanted to continue living contentedly in Paris. Vampires took offense so easily – and Parisian vampires were the worst...

The foundations of your childhood, they stay with you.

Patience, grasshopper,” said Maia. “Good things come to those who wait.””I always thought that was ‘Good things come to those who do the wave,'” said Simon. “No wonder I’ve been so confused all my life.

You think that’s the solution to everything, don’t you, Bane? Drinking and dancing and making love… but I tell you this, something is coming, and we’d be fools to ignore it.””When have I ever claimed...

I’ve noticed the Fair Folk often say ‘perhaps’ when there is a truth they want to hide,” Clary said. “It keeps you from having to give a straight answer.””Perhaps so,” said the Queen with an...

The implication was clear in the snap itself.

That thing that looks like me but isn’t? He’ll burn down the world if Sebastian wants him to, and laugh while he’s doing it. That’s what you’re saving, Clary. That. Don’t you understand? I’d rather...

When you told me the first time that Valentine was your father, I didn’t believe it. Not just because I didn’t want it to be true, but because you weren’t anything like him. I’ve never...

I swear, I almost died back there on that ship, you know.”He let her hand go, but he was staring at her, almost as if he meant to memorize her face. ” I know,” he...

Maybe it was true what the Seelie Queen had said, after all: Love made you a liar.

I’ve been wandering around all night—I couldn’t sleep—and I kept finding myself walking here. To you.

This time Magnus answered it, his voice booming through the tiny entryway. “WHO DARES DISTURB MY REST?”Jace looked almost nervous. “Jace Wayland. Remember? I’m from the Clave.””Oh, yes.” Magnus seemed to have perked up. “Are...

I love round tables. They suit me so much better than a square.”Magnus, pg. 137

Sweet pea?'” Alec said.”I was just trying it out.”Alec shook his head. “No.”Magnus shrugged. “I’ll keep at it.

I’m tired of watching you be in love with someone else someone who will never love you back, not the way I do.

I don’t remember ordering the bride of an evil maniac,” said Magnus. “It was definitely beef and broccoli. What about you, Tessa? Did you order the bride of an evil maniac?

Come with me.””Come with you? To Pandemonium? To the Void? And here I thought that my invitation to summer in New Jersey was the worst I had ever received.

She seemed shy, yet all her attention was focused on Magnus, as if he were the most fascinating thing she had ever seen. There was no man who did not want to see himself reflected...

–,Piensas que hay una oportunidad para él? –,Una oportunidad para quién? –Will Herondale. De que sea feliz.

Where there is love, there is often also hate. They can exist side by side.

Our souls are knit. We are one person, James.

In the back.

I thought… that we could at least talk about books.

He was all silver and ashes, not like Will’s strong colors of blue and black and gold.

I’m afraid to answer that. I’ve heard that when I speak, it makes American women wish to strike me with umbrellas.

James Carstairs! Jem! Where are you, you disloyal bastard?

You’re not gay, are you?”Simon’s greenish color deepened. “If I were, I would dress better.

You know, when someone prefers their own brother over you, it isn’t a confidence booster.

Simon looked at Jordan who was looking at Maia again. She had her back to them and was talking to Luke and Jocelyn, laughing, flinging her curly hair back. “Don’t even think about it,” Simon...

I can’t believe you didn’t say you were Simon Lewis,” she said. “I thought you were just a mundane.”Simon leaned slightly away. “I am just a mundane.

I’d always hoped that when i said ‘I Love You’ to a girl, she’d say ‘I Know’ like Leia did to Han in Return Of The Jedi

You may be the only guy my age I’ve ever met who knows what bergamot is, much less that it’s in Earl Grey tea.” “Yes, well,” Jace said, with a supercilious look, “I’m not like...

I can see why you like it here, there’s a thin layer of nerd all over everything.

Jace laughed, that soft rich sound Clary loved so much. “I’m warning you, that jacket is sexy. The Institute could go up in sexy, sexy flames.

A sort of good-bye without saying good-bye,” he said. “It is a reference to a passage in the Bible. ‘And Mizpah, for he said, the Lord watch between me and thee when we are absent...

NYC Institute has one. I’ll show you sometime if you want.It’s a date.It is maybe the least romantic spot in the Institute, by the way.You’ll make up for that, I’m sure.(Jeez, get a locked room...

Sincerity and gravity, in Magnus’s opinion, were highly overrated, as was being forced to relive unpleasant memories. He would much rather be amused and amusing.

A parabatai. Like he was. And Jace knew, too, what that faded rune meant: a parabatai whose other half was dead. He felt his sympathy leap toward Brother Zachariah, as he imagined himself without Alec,...

She looked as if she were in the middle of posing for an unbelievably glamorous photo shoot. Then again, she always did. It was her talent. Clary, however, was staring stubbornly up into Isabelle’s face...

Going round and around inside a dryer can be fatal, whereas pasta is rarely fatal. Unless Isabelle makes it.

When life gives you lemons, make lemonade, and then throw it in the face of the person who gave you the lemons until they give you the oranges you originally asked for.

Church was doing what he often did when dropped – lying on his back with all four legs in the air, pretending to be dead in order to induce guilt in his owners.

I cannot explain love. I could not tell you if I loved you the first moment I saw you, or if it was the second or third or fourth. But I remember the first moment...

Though Alec had never seen the occupants of the first floor loft, they seemed to be engaged in a tempestuous romance. Once there had been a bunch of someone’s belongings strewn all over the landing...

When did you two get so buddy-buddy? Last night it was all, ‘I’m the most elite warrior!’ ‘No, I’m the most elite warrior!’ And today you’re playing Halo and giving each other props for good...
