Sherrilyn Kenyon cytaty

strona 15

„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.”

“Now don’t you be covering for him, Ash. (She wagged her finger at Nick.) Are you driving? (Cherise)
No, Mom. I’m sitting. (Nick)”

“Vengeance only destroys the one who seeks it. (Theo- Geary’s Grandfather/Acheron)”

“Nick, space. Now. (Acheron)
Go, Nick, fetch. Here, boy, here. You should let me borrow one of those leather collars you wear and give me a tag with Kyrian’s number on it. ‘In case of loss, call my owner.’ (Nick)”

“It can’t eat him. I forbid it. (Artemis)
She can do as she pleases. I taught her to waste not, want not. (Acheron)”

“Hey, man. Where have you been? (Dev)
Out and about. You? (Talon)
(Dev gave him a wicked grin.) Mostly in and out. (Dev)”

“I assure you he died screaming like a girl. (Daimon)
Oh, I am so offended by that. What is the deal with that sexist statement? I’m a female and I don’t scream. But I’ve killed many a male Daimon who did. (Danger)”

“Anyone ever tell you you should be a lawyer? (Otto)
Only Bill when we argue. Besides, I like killing bloodsuckers too much to ever be one of them. Tabitha Deveraux. Pleased to meet you. (Tabitha)”

“All of us have darkness inside us, and at times it possesses and seduces us in ways we never thought possible.”

“So what’s on the agenda for tonight? (Danger)
Migraine, futility, possible death. Same as every night, I guess. (Alexion)”

“Daimons, vampires, ghouls, whatever you want to call them. They suck your blood and your soul and leave you with nothing. Kind of like lawyers. (Selena)”

“You I expected better of." He turned his swirling sliver gaze from Sam to Dev and Fang. "You two not so much."

-Acheron”

“Black belt in Akihito. (Amanda)
Any other time, I'd kiss you for that. (Kyrian)”

“I would have, had someone not detonated their charges prematurely. (Nykyrian)
Yeah, Cruel. You have to watch that premature detonation problem of yours. (Hauk)”

“Ninety percent of intelligence was knowing when to shut up.’ – Cherise”

“Your boyfriend is…well, way buff. Monster buff. Lord, king buff. (Sunshine)”

“You can’t buy time, Nick. Ever. It’s the only thing in life you can’t get most of, and it’s the one thing that will mercilessly tear you up when it’s gone. It takes no pity on no soul and no heart.”

“Is there a point to your latest irritation, Kish? (Sin)
Had a sudden death wish. Felt the deep need to come up here and have you freeze me. (Kish)”

“Remember what I’ve told you. Looks can often deceive you. A poor man can don the robes of a prince and a prince can be shoeless in the street. We judge people by what their actions are, not by the clothes they wear. (Eleni)”

“But this…this kid wasn’t dead yet. Makes no sense to me. (Bubba)
Maybe someone spiked his Wheaties? (Nick)”

“Ryssa? How do you know her name was Ryssa? (Tory)
Uh…I don’t. I just gave her a name. It seemed more polite than calling her ‘hey, you, ancient chick.’ (Acheron)”

“We’re so screwed. (Cassandra)
Yeah, well, I don’t let anyone screw me until they kiss me, and since there’s not even a snowball’s chance in hell of me kissing that bastard, we’re not screwed. (Wulf)”

“Let me give you free advice, kid. Whenever something is coming for you, snap its neck or double tap. Never, ever hesitate. It’s infinitely better to be judged by twelve than carried by six.” – Death”

“Because I don’t feel broken when you look at me.”

“You have no idea how to comfort anyone, do you? (Astrid)
In case you haven’t noticed, princess, social skills aren’t my forte. Hell, you’re lucky I’m housebroke. (Zarek)”

“It is leashed. Now drop the subject or I’ll tell Sin you’ve seen me naked. (Kat)
I will never bring this topic up again. Oh wait. What topic? I have Alzheimer’s. I know nothing at all. (Kish)”

“Where’s a friggin’ rocket when you need it? Ah, crap, Jaden, stop with the pollen. I hate that. Yeah, taste honey, you punk! (Acheron)”

“three out of four demons prefer barbeque sauce over hemoglobin”

“This is so unfair to you. (Ryssa)
Life isn’t about being fair. It’s not about justice. It’s all about endurance and how much we can suffer through. (Acheron)”

“Is the life you seek to take worth the one you could one day create? (Savitar)”
