Valentine!””You mean father. I despise this modern habit of calling one’s parents by their names.””What I want to call you is a hell of a lot more unprintable than your name.”- Clary Fray and Valentine...

Well, I’m certainly not Ragnor Fell the exotic dancer.

Keeping demons from this world is your mandate, a mandate from heaven. And a mandate from heaven isn’t something you can just ignore.

then so am I.

Llegaste a mi vida y de repente tuve una verdad a la que aferrarme: que yo te amaba y tú me amabas.

I hope you told him you were bitten by a gay spider.

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...

Iron Sisters also badass at recycling!

Love is a contradiction… Jace to Clary

no one has ever actually referred to me as ‘the master’, or ‘the magister’, either. More’s the pity…

One thing you’ll learn as you get older, Simon, is that when people tell you something unpleasant about themselves, it’s usually true.

You could have fooled me. Everytime I called you, Luke said you were sick. I figured you were avoiding me. Again.””I wasn’t. I did want to talk to you. I’ve been thinking about you all...

Everyone has choices to make; no one has the right to take those choices away from us. Not even out of love..

I’ll just have them change the entry in the demonology textbook from ‘almost extinct’ to ‘not extinct enough for Alec. He prefers his monsters really, really extinct.’ Will that make you happy?

Watching Jace hug Isabelle, she tried to school her features into a happy and loving expression.”Are you all right?” Simon asked, with some concern. “Your eyes are crossing.

I like ducks.” Jem observed diplomatically. “Esspecially the ones in Hyde Park.” He glanced side ways at Will; both boys were sitting at the edge of a high table, thier legs dangling over the side....

One does no question miracles, or complain that they are no constructed perfectly to one’s liking.

As Luke knelt down beside his corpse, Clary couldn’t help but remember what he had said about having loved Valentine once, about having been his closest friend. Luke, she thought with a pang. Surely he...

Wait a second,” Clary said.”I never understand why people say that,” Luke said, to no one in particular. “I wasn’t going anywhere.

There are some kinds of wounds you can get, internal injuries. You don’t know what’s wrong with you, but you’re bleeding to death slowly inside.

Simon’s love life was complicated, but there was a pang, just for a moment, for this woman talking graphic novels with him. Ah, well. Tessa Gray, foxy nerd, was probably dating someone already.

Most of us do things for reasons that are more purely personal. For love, or for hate.

Gabriel, don’t look at anything unless I tell you it’s all right.

God knows we’re all drawn toward what’s beautiful and broken; I have been, but some people cannot be fixed. Or if they can be, it’s only by love and sacrifice so great it destroys the...

What’s that you’re holding?” he asked, noticing the pamphlet, still rolled up in her left hand. “Oh, this?” She held it up. “How to Come Out to Your Parents.”He widened his eyes. “Something you want...

She took out a shiny folded pamphlet, the kind they kept stacked in clear plastic stands in hospital waiting rooms. “How to Come Out to Your Parents,” she read out loud. “LUKE. Don’t be ridiculous....

A little girl robbed you?” Tessa said.”Actually, she wasn’t a little girl at all, as it turns out, but a midget in a dress with a penchant for violence, who goes by the name of...

That was the last cruel irony of Tobias’s life: that he doomed the woman he would have died to save.
