Sherrilyn Kenyon cytaty

strona 13

„Zwycięzcy tworzą własną wersję prawdy.”

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

„Czy ja w ogóle coś dla ciebie znaczę?
(…)
– Tak, znaczysz, ale musisz przyznać, że ledwie się znamy.
– Wiem, a jednak, kiedy na ciebie patrzę, znam cię. Czuję cię w sercu tak głęboko, że to aż boli.”

„Bowiem wszystkie starożytne mity i legendy mają swoje korzenie w prawdzie, a czasem prawda wcale nas nie wyzwala. Czasem zniewala nas jeszcze bardziej.”

„Myślałam, że tylko kołek wbity w serce zabija wampira.
– 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.”

“I'm beginning to think the only choice anyone has in life is between either a bad choice or a worse one.”

“Are you sure I can’t catch it? (Nick)
I’m positive. Believe me, I know my zombies. (Bubba)
(Nick scoffed.) ‘Is it just me or is that like saying I know my elves and fairies?’ (Nick)”

“Take that, you scum-sucking snipes. Eat your words and your cruelty. May you drown in it and die. (Nick)”

“What four realms? (Amanda)
Time, space, earth, and dreams. (Talon)
Okay, now that is scary. Some of you guys walk through time? (Amanda)
And space and dreams. (Talon)
Ah. So Rod Sterling was a Were-Hunter? (Amanda)”

“If you don’t live though and drop dead from it, can the Simi eat you? Akri says the Simi can’t eat no living people, but he never said no doubt them newly dead people. Maybe that’s why he don’t let me near them fresh dead. (Simi)”

“Fine. Let’s begin with something even you can’t screw up.” – Death
“Way to build up my crappy confidence there. You should volunteer for the suicide hotline.” – Nick
“What makes you think I don’t?” – Death”

“You got guts taking that tone with me. (Nykyrian)
What you gonna do, oh great wounded one? I’m the one with the injector. (Syn)”

“When someone is drowning and you try to save them, they're more likely to drown you before you pull them out.”

“You are my heaven, and you will always be my enternal hell!
~ Darling”

“Here. (Zarek)
What is it? (Astrid)
Arsenic and vomit. (Zarek)
Really? And yet you managed to hack that up so quietly. Who knew? Thanks. I’ve never had vomit before. I’m sure it’s extra special. (Astrid)”

“She went from angry to calm so fast that he wondered if she wasn’t the Ferrari of moms. Her top speed had to be.65 nanoseconds.’ (Nick)”

“Then shut up or grab a sword and come help. (Takeshi)
Is that a challenge? (Savitar)
It would be if I didn’t know for a fact that you’re too lazy to rise to one. (Takeshi)”

“Because I cursed him to it. (Acheron)
Be glad I’m not physically there or I’d slap you upside the head. You know how free will works, so stop the whining and get off the cross. Someone needs the wood. (Savitar)”

“You don’t like people who have money, do you? (Astrid)
I’m not prejudiced against anyone, princess. I hate everyone equally. (Zarek)”

“What’s in that backpack, by the way? You’re always guarding it like it holds national security secrets or something. (Tory)
Dirty underwear. (Acheron)”

“You go to him for advice? He’s only what? Five years old? I swear I own older sweaters. (Tory)”

“The only vampires I've ever seen are the Goths trying to get a glimpse of Anne Rice's house, who drink strawberry sodas and tell each other it's blood.”

“Im not tense, just terribly, terribly alert." Nick”

“I swear, Daimons or not, if you don’t behave, Z, I’m going to send you to Antarctica and leave you there to rot. (Acheron)
Ooo. I’m terrified. Those killer penguins and hairy seals are really scary. (Zarek)”

“I was the Sumerian god of fertility. You know what that means, don’t you? (Sin)
You have a lot of penis envy over the other fertility gods? Don’t worry. I won’t tell the other gods about your small penis problem. (Kat)”

“Where I am always thou art. Thy image lives within my heart.”

“Any problems with your flight? (Acheron)
I didn’t eat my pilot if that’s what you mean. And little Nicky here is still breathing and not bleeding. (Zarek)”

“What has crawled up your butt and died? (Tabitha)”

“So long as you’re not a snap, you’re safe. (Nykyrian)
Snap…Syn used that term. (Kiara)
Single. Naïve. Amateur. Person. (Nykyrian)”

“Yeah, it’s me, but I like to think I looked better when we met. ‘Cause right now, I’m pretty much hogging all the ugly. (Nick)”

“Hi, Mom…Yes, I know my heart rate’s dangerously elevated. That sound? I’m being shot at, Ma. Gotta go now. Love you much. Hugs and kisses. (Devyn)”

“We’re multigenerational Squires. (Carl)
Which means what? You prance around with tinfoil armor and plastic swords pretending to be knights? (Nick)”

“Nick, fetch my car, fetch my clothes, sweep the chimney, make my bed, watch my psychopath, fetch my slippers.’ Yeah, I’ll fetch those slippers and stick them someplace real uncomfortable. I swear, my mother should have named me Fido. (Nick)”

“My demon ate them. (Nick)
What happened to the jocks? (Acheron)
Riiiight. And I suppose the Big Bad Wolf will be coming in right behind you to finish up? Or is it the Gingerbread Man I need to fear? (Nick)”
