Cassandra Clare cytaty

strona 40

„Co robisz? – zapytał Alec, klękając przy migotliwej ścianie więzienia.
(…)
– A tak, przyszło mi do głowy, że poleżę sobie na podłodze i trochę powije się z bólu – odburknął. – To mnie relaksuje.
– Naprawdę? A… jesteś sarkastyczny.”

„Chłopiec już nigdy więcej nie płakał i nigdy nie zapomniał tego, czego się nauczył: że kochać to niszczyć i że być kochanym to znaczy zostać zniszczonym.”

„Mogłaby zamknąć oczy, udawać, że wszystko jest w porządku. Wiedziała jednak, że nie da się żyć z zamkniętymi oczami.”

„Gdybyś był w połowie tak zabawny, za jakiego się uważasz, mój chłopcze, byłbyś dwa razy bardziej zabawny niż jesteś.”

„(…) bardzo łatwo jest stracić wszystko, co uważało się za dane na zawsze.”

„Kochać to niszczyć, być kochanym to zostać zniszczonym”

„A potem zrobił krok w powietrze, tak spokojnie, jakby schodził z ganku. Clary krzyknęła głośno, kiedy runął w dół jak kamień… I wylądował lekko na stopach, tuż przed nią. Clary wytrzeszczyła oczy i rozdziawiła usta, kiedy wstał z lekkiego przysiadu i uśmiechnął się do niej szeroko.
– Gdybym powiedział, że właśnie do was wpadłem, pewnie uznałabyś to za oklepany żart.”

„„Trzeba zawsze uważać na książki”, powiedziała Tessa, „a to, co jest w nich, ponieważ słowa mają moc, by nas zmienić”.”

“Maybe warlocks only liked other warlocks. Though Magnus did seem to like Alec quite a lot.”

“Those girls on the other side of the car are staring at you."
"Of course they are," he said. "I am stunningly attractive.”

“You're sitting on my bed," he said. "Did yo think I was under it?”

“I prefer to think that I'm liar in a way that's uniquely my own.”

“I don't know how I could sleep at night, not knowing I was surrounded by a thousand other sleeping, dreaming souls. - pg 120, Jem to Tessa & Will”

“It's my cologne. Eau de Recent Injury." (Jace)”

“He shone all over. Only Magnus, Simon thought resignedly, would have access to sequined battle armor.”

“To his children, Will showed the same love he had always shown to her, fierce and unyielding. And the same protectiveness he had only ever showed to one other person: the person James had been named after. Will’s parabatai, Jem.”

“Even more blood welled up and spilled down his arm, splattering onto the ground.
“Camille’s carpet,” Magnus protested.
“It’s blood,” said Will. “She ought to be thrilled.”

“You think they are kind, that the Nephilim are kind, because they are good, but goodness is not kindness, and there is nothing crueler than virtue.”

“Maybe I want a black eye. Did you think of that?”

“You have been known to call upon Brother Zachariah for a broken toe.
"It was turning green,” said Will”

“Normal people dont generally find their homes ransacked by demons.”

“Usually when you’re in love, you’re miserable.”

“I know you have nothing to worry about. I wasn't in love with Mark. I'll never be in love with anyone again who isn't you.”

“More than anything, she wanted to crawl across the bloody sand toward the place where Jace’s body lay, crawl to him and lay down beside him and put her arms around him, even though he was gone.”

“When people die, our dreams of what they could be die with them. Even if ours is the hand that ends them.”

“He flushed, the colour dark against his pale skin. 'I mean. Tessa Gray, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?' Jem…”

“She hated that little voice inside her head. Like the Seelie Queen, it planted doubts where there shouldn't be doubts, asked questions that had no answer.”

“As long as she is alive and well and happy in this world, I will find a way to be happy as well, even if it is not beside her”

“Never trust a duck.”

“I swear, I almost died back there on that ship, you know."
He let her hand go, but he was staring at her, almost as if he meant to memorize her face. " I know," he said. "everytime you almost die, I almost die myself.”

“He tried to learn seductive phrases in all languages, but the only Swedish he had ever really needed was, "Do you serve anything aside from pickled fish?" and "If you wrap me in furs, I can pretend to be your little fuzzy bear.”

“When to people tell the same lie…"
"They are working together," Will finished”

“Mundies die awfully easily, don't they?"
"Isabelle, you know it's bad luck to talk about death in a sickroom.”

“Not everything Jace did was insane and suicidal, she reminded herself. It just seemed that way.
-Clary, pg.46”

“You snuck up on me,” she said. “I guess I’m not much of a Shadowhunter, huh?”
Simon shrugged. “Well, in your defense, I do move with a silent, pantherlike grace.”

“Once he asked me what I thought had turned me gay."
"I hope you told him you were bitten by a gay spider," said Simon.”

“Where is your angel now?”
