    “Nico strode forward. The enemy army fell back before him like he radiated death, which of course he did.
    Through the face guard of his skull-shaped helmet, he smiled. "Got your message. Is it too late to join the party?"
    "Son of Hades." Kronos spit on the ground. "Do you love death so much you wish to experience it?"

    Nico drew his sword-three feet of wicked sharp Stygian iron, black as a nightmare. "I don't agree.”

    “I thought maybe she'd whisk us off by magic, or at least hail a taxi. Instead, Bast borrowed a silver Lexus convertible.
    "Oh, yes," she purred. "I like this one! Come along, children."
    "But this isn't yours," I pointed out.
    "My dear, I'm a cat. Everything I see is mine." She touched the ignition and the keyhole sparked. The engine began to purr. [No, Sadie. Not like a cat, like an engine.]”

    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.”
