    Cassandra Clare
    “We live and breathe words. It was books that kept me from taking my own life after I thought I could never love anyone, never be loved again. It was books that made me feel that perhaps I was not completely alone. They could be honest with me, and I with them.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    Cassandra Clare
    “Her name rang in Will's mind like the chime of a bell; he wondered if any other name on earth had such an inescapable resonance to it.

But Tessa--”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    Cassandra Clare
    “Tessa had begun to tremble. This is what she had always wanted someone to say. What she had always, in the darkest corner of her heart, wanted Will to say. Will, the boy who loved the same books she did, the same poetry she did, who made her laugh even when she was furious. And here he was standing in front of her, telling her he loved the words of her heart, the shape of her soul. Telling her something she had never imagined anyone would ever tell her. Telling her something she would never be told again, not in this way. And not by him.
    And it did not matter.
    "It's too late", she said.”
    Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Prince

    Cassandra Clare
    “We’re Nephilim. Every one of our life’s passages has some mystical component — our births, our deaths, our, marriages, everything has a ceremony and a rune. There is one as well if you wish to become someone’s parabatai. It’s no small commitment.”

    “A parsnip?” Jem suggested.
    “A parsnip planted in Satan’s own garden.” said Will. He glanced about. “I don’t suppose there’s a dog I could feed it to.”

    “Probably all poisoned by parsnips,” said Will.”
