    “Oh Beautiful for smoggy skies, insecticided grain,
    For strip-mined mountain's majesty above the asphalt plain.
    America, America, man sheds his waste on thee,
    And hides the pines with billboard signs, from sea to oily sea.”
    George Carlin

    “Well, when I was five, I wanted my mother to let me go around and around inside a dryer with the clothes,” Clary said. “The difference is, she didn’t let me.”
    “Probably because going around and around in a dryer can be fatal,” Jace pointed out, “whereas pasta is rarely fatal. Unless Isabelle makes it.”

    Cassandra Clare
    “We can buy you one of those books they have for little kids 'Timmy Has Two Dads'. Except I don't think they have one called 'Timmy Has Two Dads and One of Them Was Evil'. That part you're just going to have to work through on your own.”

    “The surface of the pond was green with fallen leaves. "How could you have been happy there? I know what you thought, but Valentine was a terrible father. He killed your pets, lied to you, and I know he hit you- don't even try to pretend he didn't."
    A flicker of a smile ghosted across Jace's face. "Only on alternate Thursdays.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    Cassandra Clare
    “Let me put it this way, my father believed in a righteous God. Deus volt, that was his motto- 'because God wills it.' It was the Crusaders' motto, and they went into battle and were slaughtered just like my father. And when I saw him lying dead in a pool of his own blood, I knew then that I hadn't stopped believing in God. I'd just stopped believing God cared. There might be a God, Clary, and there might not, but I don't think it matters. Either way we're on our own.”
    Jace from Cassandra Clare's City of Bones, City of Bones

    “Hugo attacked me." Clary tried not to wince as the astringent liquid stung her wounds.
    Hugo?" Luke blinked.
    Hodge's bird. I think it was his bird, anyway. Maybe it was Valentine's."
    Hugin," Luke said softly. "Hugin and Munin were Valentine's pet birds. Their names mean 'Thought' and 'Memory.'"
    Well they should mean 'Attack' and 'Kill,'" said Clary. "Hugo almost tore my eyes out.”

    “Oh, he's rude to everyone," said Isabelle airily. "It's what makes him so damn sexy.”

    Cassandra Clare
    “You're just worried they'll hire a male instructor and he'll be hotter than you."
    Jace's eyebrows went up. "Hotter than me?"
    "It could happen," Clary said, "You know, theoretically."
    "Theoretically the planet could suddenly crack in half, leaving me on one side and you on the other, forever and tragically parted, but I'm not worried about that either. Some things," Jace said, with his customary crooked smile, "are just too unlikely to dwell upon.”

    “You know, some people think Shadowhunters are just myths. Like mummies and genies." Kyle grinned at Jace. "Can you grant wishes?"

    "That depends," he said. "Do you wish to be punched in the face?”

    “What's this?"
    "That's a mango." Simon stared at Jace. Sometimes it really is like Shadowhunters were from an alien planet.
    "I don't think I've seen one of those that wasn't already cut up," Jace mused. "I like mangoes."
    Simon grabbed the mango and tossed it into the cart. "Great. What else do you like?"
    Jace pondered for a moment. "Tomato soup," he said finally.
    "Tomato soup? You want tomato soup and a mango for dinner?"
    Jace shrugged. "I don't really care about food.”

    “You look lousy,' he said.
    Jace blinked. 'Seems an odd time to start an insult contest, but if you insist, I could probably think up something good.'
    'No I mean it. You don't look good.'
    'This is from a guy ho has all the sex appeal of a penguin. Look, I realize you may be jealous that the good Lord didn't deal you the same chiseled hand he dealt me, but that's no reason to-'
    'I am not trying to insult you.' Simon snapped.”

    “Medium clever,” Simon acknowledged. “Like a cross between George Clooney in Ocean’s Eleven and those MythBusters guys, but, you know, better-looking.”
    “I’m always so glad I have no idea what you’re vacantly chattering about,” said Jace. “It fills me with a sense of peace and well-being.”

    “Take off your shirt."
    Jace raised his eyebrows.
    "I'm not going to attack you," she said impatiently. "I can take the sight of your naked chest without swooning."
    "Are you sure?" he asked, obediently sliding the shirt off his shoulders. "Because viewing my naked chest has caused many women to seriously injure themselves stampeding to get to me.”

    “It's my special magical power. I can read your mind when you're thinking dirty thoughts."
    "So, ninety-five percent of the time."
    She craned her head back to look up at him. "Ninety-five percent? What's the other five percent?"
    "Oh, you know, the usual--demons I might kill, runes I need to learn, people who've annoyed me recently, people who've annoyed me not so recently, ducks."
    "Ducks?”

    “Simon stepped between them. “I’m not going to let you fight with each other.”
    “And what are you going to do about it if . . . Oh.” Jace's gaze trailed up to Simon’s forehead, and he grinned reluctantly. “ So basically you’re threatening to turn me into something you can sprinkle on popcorn if I don’t do what you say?”

    Cassandra Clare
    “We shouldn’t,” protested Isabelle. “The Clave has a plan.”

    “The Clave has the collective intelligence of a pineapple,” said Jace.

    Alec blinked up at them. “Jace is right.”

    Isabelle turned on her brother. “What do you know? You weren’t even paying attention.”

    “I was,” Alec said, injured. “I said Jace was right.”

    “Yeah, but there’s like a 90% chance of me being right most of the time, so that’s not proof you were listening,” said Jace. “That’s just a good guess.”
