It was a very bad idea. It was a terrible idea. It was the worst idea he had ever heard. It was irresistible.

Alex- Alec, if I had given you the impression I had accepted the idea of your death, I can only apologize. I tried to, I thought I had- and yet still I pictured having you...

Remember when you tried to convince me to feed a poultry pie to the mallards in the park to see if you could breed a race of cannibal ducks?” “They ate it too,” Will reminisced....

If no one cares for you at all, do you even really exist?

Dear me. Such harsh truths so early in the morning cannot be good for the digestion.

Marry me,” he said. “Marry me, Tess. Marry me and be Tessa Herondale. Or be Tessa Gray, or be whatever you wish to call yourself, but marry me and stay with me and never leave...

And if that isn’t proof that those two colors should never be seen together under Heaven, I don’t know what is.

You’re in a charming temper, aren’t you, William?” interrupted Jem,though there was no edge to his voice.

The Will I fell in love with, she almost said.”And be Will,” she finished instead. “Or I shall hit you with my umbrella.

I love your name. I love the sound of it

Why are you always trying to get yourself killed?””It’s my job.””It’s a hazard of your job. At least for most Shadowhunters. For you it seems to be the purpose.

I have a dress fitting to get to at three.’ (Simon)’Cool,’ said Kyle, slinging his messenger bag over his shoulder and heading for the door. ‘Get them to make you something in red. It’s totally...

Remember, children, all the stories are true.”Simon tried to wrap his head around the idea that there might, somewhere in Germany, be a large bean stalk with an angry giant at the top.

Yes, you bit me, yes, I kind of liked it, yes, let’s not talk about it again, said Jace. You’re not a vampire anymore. Focus.

Now shut up. I want to sleep,” she said, and she curled up against his side and closed her eyes.Somehow, now, they fit, where they hadn’t before.Nothing was awkward, or poking into him, or banging...

I think they’ll probably put that on my gravestone. ‘He Was Heterosexual and Had Low Expectations.

Nesretni su samo ljudi bez cilja.Ja imam cilj.

Well,” said Clary, after a judicious pause, “I guess you wouldn’t have taken advantage of her when she’s so grief-stricken and all.” Simon snorted. “If you ever meet the man who could take advantage of...

But I will never have a bride.

I should be very insulted if you chose another,”she said, and leaned up to kiss himagain.

Just coffee. Black—like my soul.

He banged on the side of the carriage. “Thomas! We must away at once to the nearest brothel. I seek scandal and low companionship.

Of course you can have a true Shadowhunter name,” Will said. “You can have mine.”Tessa stared at him, all black and white against the black-and-white snow and stone. “Your name?”Will took a step toward her,...

Jace looked as if she had slapped him. “Why are you determined not to believe us?””Because she loves you,” said Valentine.Clary felt the blood drain out of her face.

You’re an idiot.””I’ve never claimed to be otherwise.

Then you’re aping him. Valentine was one of the most arrogant and disrespectful men I’ve ever met. I suppose he brought you up to be just like him.””Yes,” Jace said, unable to help himself, “I...

Jace suggested that the cast of “Gilligan’s Island” could go do something anatomically unlikely with themselves.

Hate is nothing when weighed against survival. (Valentine)

aren’t you, uh… reproducing?”sure, we love reproducing it’s one of our favorite things.

“Jace?” “Yeah?” “How did you know I had Shadowhunter blood? Was there some way you could tell?” The elevator arrived with a final groan. Jace unlatched the gate and slid it open. The inside reminded...

She closed her eyes and jumped. For a moment she felt herself hang suspended, free of everything. Then gravity took over, and she plunged toward the floor. Instinctively she pulled her arms and legs in,...

I promise you, the right man won’t care.

Whatever you are physically, male or female, strong or weak, ill or healthy – all those things matter less than what your heart contains. If you have the soul of a warrior, you are a...

Jessamine blew out her cheeks in exasperation. “I think you ought to let me take poor Tessa into town to get some new clothes. Otherwise, the first time she takes a deep breath, that dress...

You’re a disaster for us, Clary! You’re a mundane, you’ll always be one, you’ll never be a Shadowhunter! You don’t know how to think like we do, think about what’s best for everyone– all you...

Ugh,” he said after a few swallows. “Dead blood.” Jace’s eyebrows went up. ” Isn’t all blood dead?” “The longer the animal whose blood I’m drinking has been dead, the worse the blood tastes,” Simon...

Aline!” Isabelle looked appalled. “You can’t just go around asking people what it’s like to be a vampire.

… We are Nephilim; we fight our own battles.” “That’s not precisely true, is it?” said a velvety voice. It was Magnus Bane, wearing a long and glittering coat, multiple hoops in his ears, and...

I wouldn’t change it,” Simon said. “I wouldn’t give up loving you. Not for anything. You know what Raphael told me? That I didn’t know how to be a good vampire, that vampires accept that...

whereas pasta is rarely fatal. Unless Isabelle makes it.

She could ask for anything, she thought dizzily, anything–an end to pain or world hunger or disease, or for peace on earth. But then again, perhaps these things weren’t in the power of angels to...

There are ways in which we’re so alike. We’re reckless. We don’t think before we act. We’ll do anything for people we love. And I never thought how scary that was for the people who...

Do you remember what I told you that first time at Taki’s? About faerie food?””I remember you said you ran down Madison Avenue naked with antlers on your head”, said Clary, blinking silver drops off...

There. She had thanked Sebastian. She waited for a bolt of lightning to shoot out of the clouds and striker her dead. But nothing happened.

Of course it’s not okay with me. I’m a teenage boy. As far as I’m concerned, this is the worst thing that’s happened since I found out why Magnus was banned from Peru.

Just ask Clary.

There might simply be nothing going on that might activate it. Perhaps there isn’t anything here that Alec is afraid of.”Magnus glanced at Alec and raised his eyebrows. “Boo.”Luke and Magnus, pg. 285

The warlock’s gaze, on the flames, was remote and distant, as if he were looking back into the past. Simon couldn’t help but remember what Magnus had said to him once, about living forever:Someday you...
