In lieu of the upcoming anticipated movie, a little favorite from Mortal Instruments:“Don't order any of the faerie food," said Jace, looking at her over the top of his menu. "It tends to make humans a little crazy. One minute you're munching a faerie plum, the next minute you're running naked down Madison Avenue with antlers on your head. Not," he added hastily, "that this has ever happened to me.”

YA Paranormal Quote of the WeekI couldn’t pass this one up from Edward’s (Rob P.) very own lips!
“If you find a girl who reads, keep her close. When you find her up at 2 AM clutching a book to her chest and weeping, make her a cup of tea and hold her. You may lose her for a couple of hours but she will always come back to you. She’ll talk as if the characters in the book are real, because for a while, they always are. Date a girl who reads because you deserve it. You deserve a girl who can give you the most colorful life imaginable. If you can only give her monotony, and stale hours and half-baked proposals, then you’re better off alone. If you want the world and the worlds beyond it, date a girl who reads.”
― Robert Pattinson
Quote for Mother's Everywhere ...who make a "home" a cherished place that the mind will always love.
"...a house is not an end in itself, any more than "home" is just one geographic location where things feel safe and familiar. Home can be anyplace in which we create our own sense of rest and peace as we tend to the spaces in which we eat and sleep and play. It is a place that we create and re-create in every moment, at every stage of our lives, a place where the plain and common becomes cherished and the ordinary becomes sacred."
— Katrina Kenison (The Gift of an Ordinary Day: A Mother's Memoir)

There was a wealth of pride and love in his eyes, but when he raised his gaze to me, I could see the hint of fear behind.
