Cassandra Clare citáty

strana 30

„„Člověk si musí vždy dávat pozor na knihy,“ řekla Tessa, „a co je v nich, protože slova mají moc nás změnit.““

„A teď potřebuji, abys pro mě udělal to, co nemohu udělat sám. Abys byl mým zrakem, který mi chybí. Abys byl mýma rukama, když nemůžu používat svoje vlastní. Abys byl mým srdcem, když to moje přestane bít.“

„Milovat znamená ničit, a být milování znamená být ničen.“

„Ten chlapec už nikdy neplakal a nikdy nezapomněl, co se naučil: že milovat znamená ničit a že být milován znamená být tím, kdo je ničen.“

“You're staring at me," Simon said. "Why are you staring at me? Have I got something on my face?”

“Everything we need to know is locked up in your head, under those pretty red curls."
Clary reached up to touch her hair protectively. "I dont think-"
"So what are you going to do?" Simon asked sharply. "Cut her head open to get at it?”

“How they loved each other, these three, how they had suffered for each another, and yet how much joy they clearly took from simply being in the same room.”

“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 giver.”

“Only Jace could look cool in pajama bottoms and an old T-shirt, but he pulled it off, probably through sheer force of will.”

“Every decision you make, makes you. Never let other people choose who you’re going to be.”

“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 and I will be the only two left.”

“There was no Jace Wayland more real than the one he saw in her eyes when she looked at him.”

“With the whole Mark of Cain thing, does that mean if I accidentally kick you during the night, I get kicked in the shins seven times by an invisible force?”

“He'll come back," Simon said again. "For you.”

“You could know a man not by what his friends said about him, but by how he treated his servants.”

“Perhaps not," said Will, who had ears like a bat's. "But I would make a radiant bride.”

“Eternity is a long time to spend alone, without others of your kind.”

“Maryse: I am fighting for a better world for myself and my son.
Magnus: I have no interest in the world you want or in your doubteless repellent brat, I might add.”

“Interesting" he said. "You know, Simon never mentioned that his roommate was a werewolf.”

“Why all these paintings of you? Because I'm an artist, Emma. These pictures are my heart. And if my heart was a canvas, every square inch of it would be painted over with you.”

“But it was mortality that made them what they were, the flame that blazed brighter for it's flickering”

“But you love her.”
Will stared at him. “Of course I do,” he
said finally. “I had come to think I would
never love anyone, but I love her.”

“They kind of look like evil lawn gnomes”

“We had and incident. I took care of it."
"Really." Jace's voice dripped sarcasm. "Do you even know how to use that knife, Clarissa? Without poking a hole in yourself or any innocent bystanders?”

“Why should I tell you everything about how I feel when you never tell me anything?”

“Better to love and fear than feel nothing”

“If love were food, I would have starved on the bones you gave me”

“Demon slayers take the subway?”

“It would hardly benefit me to hold anything back unnecessarily, when I know what I'm asking. For you to find a needle in--God, not even a haystack. A needle in a tower full of other needles.”

“You know when most girls say they want a big rock, they dont mean, you know, literally a."
-Clary to Jace, pg.313-”

“Alec flopped down on the opposite side of the fire and glared at them both. "And where have Jace and Clary gone?"
"Ah," said Simon delicately. "Who can say…"
"Straight people," Alec declared. "Why can't they control themselves?”

“Jem" I have an assignmation in Soho this evening with a certain attractive someone.

Tessa: Goodness. If you keep seeing Six-Fingered Nigel like this, he'll expect you to declare your intentions.
Jem choked on his tea.”

“Excuse me, Bane?" said Roderick Morgenstern. "Are you attending?"
"I'm so sorry," Magnus said politely. "Somebody incredibly attractive just came into the room, and I ceased to pay attention to a word you were saying.”
