Those of us who do not live forever do not like change perhaps as much as those of you who do.

As dull as Nate Gray is,” Will said, “his head is not actually filled with gears, Henry. He’s a human.

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...

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

That for my father, there was only ever one woman he loved, and it was her for him, or nothing. You are that for me. I love you, and I will only ever love you...

He was Will, in all his perfect imperfection; Will, whose heart was as easy to break as it was carefully guarded; Will, who loved not wisely but entirely and with everything he had.

When I first arrived in London, I so quickly tired of being surrounded by so many people that it was only with great difficulty that I refrained from seizing the next unfortunate who crossed my...

I think if two souls are meant to be together, they will remain together on the Wheel and be together again in the life after this one, whatever happens to us now.

She had fallen asleep with her head on his arm, the clockwork angel, still around her throat, resting against his shoulder just to the left of his collarbone. As she moved away, the clockwork angel...

Iwouldn’t go that far,” muttered Tessa.

And to the devil with it if she is!” said the Consul. “One girl, who is not Nephilim, is not, cannot, be our priority.””She is my priority!” Will shouted.

In Will’s experience, when someone who ought to be afraid wasn’t, the reason was rarely bravery. Usually it meant that they knew something you didn’t.

Tess, Tess, Tessa. Was there ever a more beautiful sound than your name? To speak it aloud makes my heart ring like a bell. Strange to imagine that, isn’t it – a heart ringing –...

With God on your side, what does luck matter?

I’ll wake Cyril. And be prepared to swoon at my finery.

Don’t you know it?

Through many waters borne, brother, I am come to thy sad grave, that I may give these last gifts to the dead. Forever and ever, brother, hail. Forever and ever, farewell.

He speaks of you only with the greatest pride, Will

That the wall is coming down.

it’s like she knows me already.

Míralo. El rostro de un ángel malicioso y los ojos como el cielo nocturno en el Infierno. Es muy hermoso, y a los vampiros les gusta eso. Y no puedo decir que a mí me...

Will: “Nice place to live, isn’t it? Let’s hope they left something behind other than filth. Forwarding addresses, a few severed limbs, a prostitute or two …”Jem: “Indeed. Perhaps, if we’re fortunate, we can still...

I have heard sometimes that men who lose an arm of a leg still feel that pain in those limbs, though they are gone,’ said Will. ‘It is like that sometimes. I can feel Jem...

She did not belong to Will-she was too much herself to belong to anyone, even Jem-but she belonged with them, and silently he cursed the Consul for not seeing it.

[…] He tasted like snowflakes and wine, like winter and Will and London.

— Jem es la mejor parte de mí. No espero que lo entiendas. Le debo esto. –Entonces, ,qué soy yo? –preguntó Cecily. Will exhaló, demasiado irritado consigo mismo para comprobarlo. –Eres mi debilidad. –Y Tessa...

Let yourself rest, Will.

Is this a game? We just blurt out whatever word comes next to mind? In that case mine’s ‘genuphobia’. It means an unreasonable fear of knees.” “What’s the word for a perfectly reasonable fear of...

Who knows your courage better than I?

Me siento responsable por ese muchacho. Si él nunca encuentra la felicidad, sentiré que le he fallado. Si no puede tener a la chica que ama, sentiré que le he fallado. Si no puedo conservar...

Love potions? For Will Herondale? T’aint my way to turn down payment, but any man who looks like you has got no need of love potions, and that’s a fact.

What I do know is that if we are born again, I will meet you in another life, and if there is a river, you will wait on the shores for me to come to...

Jem spoke with enormous care; talking to Will about anything personal was like trying not to startle away a wild animal.

You are my conscience. You have ever been, James Carstairs.

Atque in pepetuum, frater, ave atque vale.Forever and ever, my brother, hail and farewell.

This…this…thing?””A parsnip?” Jem suggested”A parsnip planted in satan’s own garden,” said Will. He glanced about. “I dont suppose there’s a dog I could feed it to?””There dont seem to be any pets about,” Jem-who loved...

She leaned forward and caught at his hand, pressing it between her own. The touch was like white fire through his veins. He could not feel her skin only the cloth of her gloves, and...

wanting what you could not have led to misery and madness

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

Life is a book and there are a thousand pages I have not yet read.

I would, at any rate, but then, I am well known to be remarkably shy.

Has no one respect for the classics these days?

Most people are lucky to have even one great love in their life. You have found two.

What did Magnus mean by asking you if I knew you were in love with Tessa?
