Cassandra Clare Zitate

„Jace: I shall Baron Hotschaft Von Hugenstein.“

„Simon." Ihre holte ihn in die Wirklichkeit zurück. "Simon, hörst du mir überhaupt zu?"
"Hm? Ja. Ja, klar." Er lehnte sich gegen die Spüle und versuchte den Eindruck zu erwecken, dass er konzentriert bei der Sache war.“

“It would be one thing if I had been cursed so that everyone I loved would die," said Will. "I could keep myself from loving. To keep others from caring for me--it is an odd, exhausting procedure.”

“I’ve lived a long time,” Magnus said. “So many years, and no, it doesn’t feel like enough. I won’t lie and say it does. I want to live on—partly because of you, Alec. I have never wanted to live so much as I have these past few months, with you.”

“He raised an eyebrow, which made Clary instantly jealous. She’d always wanted to be able to do that.
…
Magnus raised an eyebrow. Damn, Clary thought, another one.”

“Not Magnus himself, who was more of a cross between a panther and a demented elf.”

“Simon kept pace beside Clary for a few moments without speaking before he said, “So what did I miss? Naked dancing ladies?”
Clary thought of the male faerie‘s torn-open ribs and shuddered. “Nothing that pleasant.”

“I want my people to be protected, strong, and not to be driven into corners until they either become killers or are killed!”

“Judging people together was an essential part of best friendship”

“He looked like the sort of boy who'd come over to your house to pick you up for a date and be polite to your parents and nice to your pets. Jace, on the other hand, looked like the sort of boy who'd come over to your house and burn it down for kicks.”

“One more thing," Jace said. "Is there a holy place around here?"
“Good idea. If you're going to take on a lair of vampires by yourself, you'd better pray first.”

“Yes, you bit me, yes, I kind of liked it, yes, let's not talk about it again, said Jace. You're not a vampire anymore. Focus.”

“The path to hell is an easy one.”

“One must look at the next step on the path ahead, rather than the mountain in the distance, or one would never reach one's goal.”

“Forever and ever, brother, hail. Forever and ever, farewell.”

“It's okay to love someone who doesn't love you back, as long as they're worth loving.”

“How swiftly you dismiss our love…”

“Yes," said Will, "you two don't seem to have much in common, save for a penchant for demon women and evil.”

“You always find the right quote, or the right thing to say to make me believe you love me.”

“Because women never say what they think.”

“Father nevver once looked at any woman the way he looked at Mother, with joy and thanksgiving, as if she was a living wish, granted past all hope.”

“How had it happened, Simon thought, that he was bound to these people—to people who thought of him as nothing more than a Downworlder, half human at best?”

“I belong to you. You could do anything you wanted with me and I would let you. You could ask anything of me and I'd break myself trying to make you happy.”

“Jem put the full force of himself into each smile, so that he seemed to be smiling with his eyes, his heart, his whole being.”

“People could bear so much, but Simon did not know how much of the original you was left when the world had twisted you into a whole different shape.”

“I have important business to get to. I plan to sulk all afternoon, followed, perhaps, by an evening of Byronic brooding and a nighttime of dissipation.”

“I need someone who can keep up with me, not some sickly creature that looks as if he’s doddering off to the grave.”

“We are Morgensterns," he added, a dark ache in his voice. " The bright stars of morning. The children of Lucifer, the most beautiful of all God's angels. We are so much lovelier when we fall." He paused. "Look at me, Clary. Look at me.”

“I see you're trying to distract me from the real point here," Magnus said instead. "You had a birthday - a perfect excuse for me to throw one of my famous parties - and you didn't even tell me about it?”

“The handsome young fellow who's trying to rescue you from a hideous fate is never wrong.”

“Los vampiros," she whispered.
"Oh God, not the bloody vampires again," said Magnus. "No pun intended.”
