    Lemony Snicket
    “It is a curious thing, the death of a loved one. We all know that our time in this world is limited, and that eventually all of us will end up underneath some sheet, never to wake up. And yet it is always a surprise when it happens to someone we know. It is like walking up the stairs to your bedroom in the dark, and thinking there is one more stair than there is. Your foot falls down, through the air, and there is a sickly moment of dark surprise as you try and readjust the way you thought of things.”

    Kinky Friedman
    “My dear,
    Find what you love and let it kill you.
    Let it drain you of your all. Let it cling onto your back and weigh you down into eventual nothingness.
    Let it kill you and let it devour your remains.
    For all things will kill you, both slowly and fastly, but it’s much better to be killed by a lover.
    ~ Falsely yours”
    Kinky Friedman

    Cassandra Clare
    “They say you cannot love two people equally at once,” she said. “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 one of them diminished by my love of the other. You merged your souls when you were both children. I could not have loved Will so much if I had not loved you as well. And I could not love you as I do if I had not loved Will as I did.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Princess

    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

    Cassandra Clare
    “As the carriage whipped forward, they passed the alley she had spent so many days staring at—it was there, and then gone as they careened around a corner, nearly knocking over a costermonger pushing a donkey cart piled high with new potatoes. Tessa screamed.

    Will reached past her and yanked the curtain shut. "It's better if you don't look," he told her pleasantly.

    "He's going to kill someone. Or get us killed."

    "No, he won't. Thomas is an excellent driver."

    Tessa glared at him. "Clearly the word excellent means something else on this side of the Atlantic.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

  • #24
    Cassandra Clare
    “It is the mundanes who look at me and see something they do not understand—a boy who is not quite white and not quite foreign either."
    "Just as I am not human, and not demon either," Tessa said softly.
    His eyes softened. "You are human," he said. "Never think you are not. I have seen you with your brother; I know how you care for him. If you can feel hope, guilt, sorrow, love—then you are human.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

And she would put herself back together and go on, because the memory of having had Jem would be better than never having had him at all.”
    Cassandra Clare, After the Bridge
