    Cassandra Clare
    “Isabelle waved a hand. "No need to worry, big brother. Nothing happened. Of course," she added as Alex's shoulders relaxed, "I was totally passed-out drunk, so he could really have done whatever he wanted and I wouldn't have woken up."
    "Oh, please," said Simon. "All I did was tell you the entire plot of Star Wars."
    "I don't think I remember that," said Isabelle, taking a cookie from the plate on the table.
    "Oh, yeah? Who was Luke Skywalker's best childhood friend?"
    "Biggs Darklighter," Isabelle said immediately, and then hit the table with the flat of her hand."That is so cheating!”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Lost Souls

    Cassandra Clare
    “Clary: What are you doing here, anyway?
    Jace: 'Here' as in your bedroom or 'here' as in the great spiritual question of our purpose here on this planet? If you're asking whether it's all just a cosmic coincidence or there's a greater metaethical purpose to life, well, that's a puzzler for the ages. I mean, simple ontological reductionism is clearly a fallacious argument, but-
    Clary: I'm going to bed.”
    Cassandra Clare

    “There is no pretending," Jace said with absolute clarity. "I love you, and I will love you until I die, and if there is life after that, I'll love you then.”

    “I guess it’s true what they say," observed Jace. "There are no straight men in the trenches."
    "That’s atheists, jackass," said Simon furiously. "There are no atheists in the trenches.”

    “Actually," said Jace, "I prefer to think that I'm a liar in a way that's uniquely my own.”

    “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, City of Bones

    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.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Fallen Angels

    Cassandra Clare
    “Clary wasn't sure what she'd expected -exclamations of delight, perhaps a smattering of applause. Instead there was silence, broken only when Jace said, "Somehow, I thought it would be bigger."
    Clary looked at the Cup in her hand. It was the size, perhaps, of an ordinary wineglass, only much heavier. Power thrummed through it, like blood through living veins. "It's a perfectly nice size," she said indignantly.
    "Oh, it's big enough," he said patronizingly, "but somehow I was expecting something… you know." He gestured with his hands, indicating something roughly the size of a house cat.
    "It's the Mortal Cup, Jace, not the Mortal Toilet Bowl," said Isabelle.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    “the [coat] rack above his head like a javelin.
    On the other side of the door was Jace. He blinked. "Is that a coatrack?"
    Jordan slammed the coatrack down on the ground and sighed. "If you'd been a vampire, this would have been a lot more useful."
    "Yes," said Jace. "Or, you know, just someone with a lot of coats.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Fallen Angels

    Cassandra Clare
    “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 be not. Either way, we're on our own.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    “What's that you're holding?" he asked, noticing the pamphlet, still rolled up in her left hand.

    "Oh, this?" She held it up. "How to Come Out to Your Parents."

    He widened his eyes. "Something you want to tell me?"

    "It's not for me. It's for you." She handed it to him.

    "I don't have to come out to my mother," said Simon. "She already thinks I'm gay because I'm not interested in sports and I haven't had a serious girlfriend yet. Not that she knows of, anyway."

    "But you have to come out as a vampire," Clary pointed out. "Luke thought you could, you know, use one of the suggested speeches in the pamphlet, except use the word 'undead' instead of--"

    "I get it, I get it." Simon spread the pamplet open. "Here, I'll practice on you." He cleared his throat. "Mom. I have something to tell you. I'm undead. Now, I know you may have some preconceived notions about the undead. I know you may not be comfortable with the idea of me being undead. But I'm here to tell you that the undead are just like you and me." Simon paused. "Well, okay. Possibly more like me than you."

    "SIMON."

    "All right, all right." He went on. "The first thing you need to understand is that I'm the same person I always was. Being undead isn't the most important thing about me. It's just part of who I am. The second thing you should know is that it isn't a choice. I was born this way." Simon squinted at her over the pamphlet. "Sorry, reborn this way.”

    “They’re not hideous,” said Tessa.
    Will blinked at her. “What?”
    “Gideon and Gabriel,” said Tessa. “They’re really quite good-looking, not hideous at all.”
    “I spoke,” said Will, in sepulchral tones, “of the pitch-black inner depths of their souls.”
    Tessa snorted. “And what color do you suppose the inner depths of your soul are, Will Herondale?”
    “Mauve,” said Will.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    “Trains are great dirty smoky things," said Will. "You won't like it."
    Tessa was unmoved. "I won't know if I like it until I try it, will I?"
    "I've never swum naked in the Thames before, but I know I wouldn't like it."
    "But think how entertaining for sightseers," said Tessa, and she saw Jem duck his head to hide the quick flash of his grin.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    Cassandra Clare
    “Do you remember back at the hotel when you promised that if we lived, you’d get dressed up in a nurse’s outfit and give me a sponge bath?" asked Jace.
    "It was Simon who promised you the sponge bath."
    "As soon as I’m back on my feet, handsome," said Simon.
    "I knew we should have left you a rat.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Bones

    “Malachi scowled. "I don't remember the Clave inviting you into the Glass City, Magnus Bane."
    "They didn't," Magnus said. "Your wards are down."
    "Really?" the Consul's voice dripped sarcasm. "I hadn't noticed."
    Magnus looked concerned. "That's terrible. Someone should have told you." He glanced at Luke. "Tell him the wards are down.”
    Cassandra Clare, City of Glass

    William Shakespeare
    “And Caesar's spirit, raging for revenge,
    With Ate by his side come hot from hell,
    Shall in these confines with a monarch's voice
    Cry "Havoc!" and let slip the dogs of war,
    That this foul deed shall smell above the earth
    With carrion men, groaning for burial.”
    William Shakespeare, Julius Caesar

    “You said, 'They’re harmless dreamers and they’re loved by the people.' 'What,' I asked you, 'is harmless about a dreamer, and what,' I asked you, 'is harmless about the love of the people? Revolution only needs good dreamers who remember their dreams.”
    Tennessee Williams
