Cassandra Clare citáty

„A teraz potrebujem, aby si pre mňa urobil to, čo sám nezvládnem. Aby si bol mojim zrakom, ktorý mi chýba. Aby si bol mojimi rukami, keď nemôžem použiť svoje vlastné. Aby si bol mojím srdcom, až to moje prestane biť.“

„„Človek si musí vždy dávať pozor na knihy,“ povedala Tessa, „a na to, čo je v nich, pretože slová majú moc nás zmeniť.““

„Keď na teba myslím a nie si pri mne, v mojej mysli ťa vždy vidím s knihou v ruke.“

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

“Alec is not a bunny rabbit. He's a shadowhunter.”

“Now before we do any digging around in that blond head of yours to find out the truth, I suggest you cool your temper. And I know just where you can do that best.”
Jace blinked. “Are you sending me to my room?”

“Drive fast, mundane. Drive like hell was following you.”

“… the kind of love that can burn down the world or raise it up in glory…”

“So much magic, Clary thought, and nothing to mend a broken heart”

“That’s your truck parked up by the factory isn’t it?” Magnus pointed. “It’s awfully butch for a bookseller.”

“To marry a girl just to make her a widow,” said Gabriel Lightwood. “Many would say that was not a kindness.”

“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 thought you're anything like him. But you are. You are.”

“Now I wonder all the time how you go back after something like that. Whether we can ever be friends again, or if what we had is broken into pieces. Not because of her, but because of me.”

“In case you were wondering, it is preferable to rule in Hell than serve in Heaven—I’ve done both.”

“Well, I hate to tell you this," she said, "but your friend is an asshole."
"He's not my friend," said Simon. "And I couldn't agree with you more, actually."

“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… foreign devils.”

“I am a hundred and forty six years old and this is not my first unwinnable war.”

“He hadn't wanted to leave Emma, but at the same time he'd thought it would help. Like an addict getting away from the source of his addiction.”

“But I will never have a bride.”

“How can you not care?"
"Practice," Magnus said, looking back to his book and turning the page.”

“Carstairs is alright, I suppose. If you like that sort.”

“Oh?”

“The taken. The uninterested.”

“As opposed to… you, Gabriel?”

“Well, yes.”

“This cat is looking at me with judgment.”“He’s not,” said Jules. “That’s just his face.”“You look at me the same way,” Mark said, glancing at Julian. “Judgy face.”

“It's love, not the Battle of Thermopylae. You don't have to treat everything like it's a last stand.”

“She had never asked herself whether it cost him any effort. Any effort to stand between Will and the world, protecting each one of them from the other.”

“It is a very strange thing, to be in love. It changes you.”

“Will looked as if she had slpped him. "I didn't do it so you'd be grateful!"
"Then what?" Her voice rose. "You did it because it's your mandate? Because the law says-"
"I did it because I love you!”

“Your father," Luke said, "what did he say to you when you saw him? What did he promise you?"
"Oh, you know. The usual. A lifetime's supply of Knicks tickets.”

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

“None of this is fair. It isn't fair that part of your life was ripped from you. It's not fair that you were ripped away from me. I'm so angry Simon.”

“Or perhaps this hostility of yours is the pretense. Love does make liars out of your kind.”

“Magnus was sure that the llama stampede he witnessed was a coincidence. The llamas could not be judging him.”

“Will: I say we sell her to the Gypsies on Hampstead Heath. I hear they puchase spare women as well as hoses.
Charlotte: Will, stop it. That's ridivulous.
Will:You're right. They'd never buy her. Too scrawny.”
