Whither thou goest, I will go;Where thou diest, will I dieAnd there will I be buried:The Angel do so to me, and more also,If aught but death part thee and me.

Will: ‘Singing the praises of our fair city? We treat you well here, don’t we, James? I doubt I’d have that kind of luck in Shanghai. What do you call us there again?’Jem: ‘Yang guizi...

She had taken him for granted, she thought with surprise and shame, watching the flickering candlelight. She had assumed his kindness was so natural and so innate, she had never asked herself whether it cost...

Oh, I don’t know. I prefer to think that when they’re at home, the Silent Brothers are much like us. Playing practical jokes in the Silent City, making toasted cheese-“”I hope they play charades,” said...

Especially the ones in Hyde Park.

Being Jem, Tessa reflected, must be a great deal like being the owner of a thouroughbred dog that liked to bite your guests. You had to have a hand on his collar constantly.

Charlotte, Will’s beingvexing.”And the sun has come up in the east,’said Jem, to no one in particular.

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....

I would rather insult you than lose you, he said, and before any of them could make a move to stop him, he cast both items into the fire.

It hardly serves you, either.

If I was harsh with you, it was because I cannot bear to see you treat yourself as if you are worth nothing. Whatever part you might act to the contrary, I see you as...

Faith,” said Jem. “That you were better than you thought you were. Forgiveness, that you need not always punish yourself. I always loved you, Will. Whatever you did. And now I need you to do...

But you love Will, too.”Tessa froze. She had known that Magnus knew of Will’s affection for her, but the idea that what she felt for him in return was written across her face was too...

Sometimes,” Jem said, “our lives can change so fast that the change outpaces our minds and hearts. It’s those times, I think, when our lives have altered but we still long for the time before...

Will: Have you ever seen what happens to someone with demon pox? First it lies dormant. One begins to turn yellow and green. Then the swelling sets in -Jem: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS...

I am not going to live, and I can choose to be as much for her as I can be, to burn as brightly for her as I wish, and for a shorter time, than...

And perhaps for others that is so. But you and Will—you are not like two ordinary people, two people who might have been jealous of each other, or who would have imagined my love for...

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,...

I can just close my eyes and let myself fall into oblivion. Maybe I’ll hit the exact same rocks and my blood will mingle with his and maybe there’s some kind of life after death...

Until death,” Jem replied gently. “Those are the words of the oath. ‘Until aught but death part thee and me.’ Someday, Will, I will go where none can follow me, and I think it will...

They already think it, so what’s the difference, really?

Ladies pick funny things to be proud of.

When to people tell the same lie…””They are working together,” Will finished

You see it, don’t you, James? Without Tessa there is nothing for me–no joy, no light, no life. If you loved me, you would let me have her. You can’t love her as I do....

The first question sobbed out by his choking voice, oppressed with emotion, was–“Where is she?”They led him to the room where his mother sat. They had told her of her son’s acquittal, and now she...

Goodness, real goodness, has it’s own sort of cruelty to it.

She hated that will had this effect on her. Hated it. She knew better. She knew what he thought of her. That she was worth nothing. And still a look from him could make her...

If she lives, she shall be my wedded wife. If she dies–mother, I can’t speak of what I shall feel if she dies.” His voice was choked in his throat.

I told you before, Jem, that you would not leave me,” Will said, his bloody hand on the hilt of the dagger. ” And you are still with me. When I breath, I will think...
