    Cassandra Clare
    “And now I’m looking at you,” he said, “and you’re asking me if I still want you, as if I could stop loving you. As if I would want to give up the thing that makes me stronger than anything else ever has. I never dared give much of myself to anyone before – bits of myself to the Lightwoods, to Isabelle and Alec, but it took years to do it – but, Clary, since the first time I saw you, I have belonged to you completely. I still do. If you want me.”

    Cassandra Clare
    “We live and breathe words. .... It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them. Reading your words, what you wrote, how you were lonely sometimes and afraid, but always brave; the way you saw the world, its colors and textures and sounds, I felt--I felt the way you thought, hoped, felt, dreamt. I felt I was dreaming and thinking and feeling with you. I dreamed what you dreamed, wanted what you wanted--and then I realized that truly I just wanted you.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    “Is this the part where you say if I hurt her, you'll kill me?"

    Cassandra Clare, City of Glass

  • #13
    Cassandra Clare
    “You could have had anything else in the world, and you asked for me."

    Cassandra Clare, City of Glass

  • #14
    Cassandra Clare
    “Remember when you tried to convince me to feed a poultry pie to the mallards in the park to see if you could breed a race of cannibal ducks?"

    “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.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Fallen Angels

    “Simon rolled his eyes. “It’s a good thing we know the person who’s dating Magnus Bane,” he said. “Otherwise, I get the feeling we’d all just lie around all the time wondering what the hell to do next. Or trying to raise the money to hire him by selling lemonade or something.”
    Alec looked merely irritated by this comment. “The only way you could raise enough money to hire Magnus by selling lemonade is if you put meth in it.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls

    Cassandra Clare
    “He grinned. It was a wicked grin, the kind that made the blood in Clary's veins run a little faster. "You want to go on a date?"
    Caught off guard, she stammered. "A wh-what?"
    "A date," Jace repeated. "Often 'a boring thing you have to memorize in history class,' but in this case, 'an offering of an evening of blisteringly white-hot romance with yours truly."
    "Really?" Clary was not sure what to make of this. "Blisteringly white-hot?"
    "It's me," said Jace. "Watching me play Scrabble is enough to make most women swoon. Imagine if I actually put in some effort.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls

    Cassandra Clare
    “I did not make a pie,” Alec repeated, gesturing expressively with one hand, “for three reasons. One, because I do not have any pie ingredients. Two, because I don’t actually
    know how to make a pie.”
    He paused, clearly waiting.
    Removing his sword and leaning it against the cave wall, Jace said warily, “And three?”
    “Because I am not your bitch,” Alec said, clearly pleased with himself.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

    Cassandra Clare, City of Heavenly Fire

  • #26
    Cassandra Clare
    “When you love someone, they become a part of who you are. They're in everything you do. They're in the air you breathe and the water you drink and the blood in your veins. Their touch stays on your skin and their voice stays in your ears and their thoughts stay in your mind. You know their dreams because their nightmares pierce your heart and their good dreams are your dreams too. And you don't think they're perfect, but you know their flaws, the deep-down truth of them, and the shadows of all their secrets, and they don't frighten you away; in fact you love them more for it, because you don't want perfect. You want them. You want—"

    He broke off then, as if realizing everyone was looking at him again.

    "You want what?" said Dru with enormous eyes.

    "Nothing," Julian said. "I'm just talking.”

    Cassandra Clare, Lady Midnight

  • #30
    Cassandra Clare
    “We are bound together, Emma, bound together—I breathe when you breathe, I bleed when you bleed, I’m yours and you’re mine, you’ve always been mine, and I have always, always belonged to you!”
    Cassandra Clare, Lady Midnight
