„To nie bogowie rzucają na nas klątwy, sami potępiamy siebie własnymi słowami i uczynkami.”

„Czy ja w ogóle coś dla ciebie znaczę?

– Drewniany kołek w sercu zabija właściwie wszystko. A jeśli czegoś nie zabije, to uciekaj, gdzie pieprz rośnie.”

„Tego właśnie uczyła ta książka. Przypominała ludziom, że to dobrze, troszczyć się, i że kiedy raz wpuścisz kogoś do serca, nigdy nie jesteś naprawdę sam. Nawet najprostsza rzecz, taka jak patrzenie na niebo, może cię pocieszyć, choćby ten, kogo kochasz, był daleko.”

„Jak myślisz, dlaczego najechaliśmy Europę?
– Bo tam była?”

„Naprawdę powinieneś kochać kobietę, która zobaczyła cię nago i nie padła trupem.”

„To naprawdę trzeba opatrzeć.
– Niech Bóg broni, żebym wykrwawił się na śmierć – rzucił kąśliwie. – Wtedy musiałabyś targać za sobą mojego gnijącego trupa.
Zmarszczyła nos.
– Można mieć bardziej makabryczne poczucie humoru? Kto był twoim idolem, kiedy dorastałeś? Boris Karloff?
– Hannibal, skoro już pytasz.”

„Śmierć jest prosta, to życie jest trudne.”

“Got to say, dying would really wreck my best day. Been there, done that, and now that I think about it, Artemis forgot to give me the t-shirt.”

“Come away with me, Astrid. (Zarek)
Why should I? (Astrid)
Because I love you, and even if I’m lying on the sun itself I’ll be freezing there without you. I need my star so that I can hear laughter. (Zarek)”

“Alright, you'll get your bonus, buy play nice with her. Keep your sarcasm to a minimum. (Kyrian)
Yes, O Great Lord and Master. Be nice to woman, keep mouth shut. (Nick)”

The correct term is sociopathic and yes, I am. But at least I have no delusions about myself. (Zarek)
Meaning? (Talon)
Take your meaning wherever you can find it. (Zarek)”

“Alright, macho babe boy, I'm not some little ditz to bat my eyelashes at the buff stud in black leather. Don't try your he-man tactics with me. I'll have you know, in my office, I'm known as the ball-breaker. (Amanda)”

“People make their own reality. That was what Praxis had taught him years ago. A hundred people can witness the exact same event, and give two hundred and three different accountings of it.”

“It’s a yes then? (Arik)
No. I thought I’d walk through hell to reclaim you and carry your baby just for the heck of it. Who needs marriage. (Geary)
I do! (Arik)
Good. I can let you live another day. (Geary)”

“Oh, gross! Zombie goo. (Caleb)
Ooo, I wonder if it tastes like chicken? What do you think? (Simi)
I think I’m never eating guacamole again as long as I live. (Caleb)”

Hair of the dog, baby. Sooner or later, we all dance with the devil. Tonight, it’s your turn. (Zarek)”

“Not that I’ve ever feared a fight or backed down from one –(Wren)
That’s the truth. I swear he’s half beta fish. He’d fight his own reflection to prove a point. (Maggie)”

“They won’t get you without getting us and believe me, we’re not about to make our enemies happy and die here. (Nykyrian)
Damn straight. We have too many people to continue pissing off. (Syn)”

“I still wanna know who to sue to get my store fixed. (Bubba)
I’m a turnip. Sue the rich kid who started it. (Nick)”

“Better to be judged by twelve than carried by six”

“Guy? Mister? Mr. Goth Man, would you please wake up so I can leave? I really don't want to hang out in a closet with a dead man any longer than I have to, okay? C'mon, please, don't make this a Weekend at Bernie's thing! (Amanda)”

“And I don’t want his body touching something I wear. He’ll contaminate it. (Sasha)

Yes he does! (Sasha)”

“Oh, goodie! I get to make the redheaded goddess mad! (Simi)”

“Hush, self, let me think.”

“Yeah, and Mr. Cuddles is a jealous sort. He doesn’t share us well. (Geary)

You’d never win. Mr. Cuddles cheats. You think he’s just a pushover teddy bear, but he’s vicious, I tell you. Vicious. (Geary)”

“Yeah, you were doing a real bang-up job of it. I particularly liked the way you were bruising his fists with your face. A few minutes more and I’m sure your heart would have been on the attack… after it was ripped from your chest. (Kat)”

“I don’t have to do nothing you say, you old heifer cow. And you are old. Really, really old. And a cow, too. (Simi)”
