Son of the Dawn (Ghosts of the Shadow Market, #1)

by Cassandra Clare

Every world contains other worlds within it. People wander through all the worlds they can find, searching for their homes.

There are more kinds of love than stars, said Brother Zachariah. If you do not feel one, there are many others. You know what it is to care for family and friends. What we keep sacred, keeps us safe. Consider that by trying to cut yourself off from the possibility of being hurt, you shut the door on love and live in darkness.

We battle hardest when that which is dearer to us than our own lives at stake, said Jem. A parabatai is both blade and shield. You belong together and to each other not because you

are the same but because your different shapes fit together to be a greater whole, a greater warrior for a higher purpose. I always believed we were not merely at our best together, but beyond the best either of us could be apart.
