Best quotes from "City of Ashes"


City Of Ashes is the second part in the series "The Mortal Instruments".
Although I loved the first and third parts more than this one, it can't be argued that Cassandra Clare has infused some magic into this part as well. It's just something about the way she pens down the thoughts, feelings and emotions. 
Don't believe me? check out some of these quotes below!
  • "He wasn’t unfamiliar or uncomfortable with secrets—either his own or other people’s—but his feelings for Clary were something he had told himself he could bear only if he did not look at them too closely." - Jace

  • "A man doesn’t have to agree with his government to be a patriot, does he? It takes a true patriot to dissent, to say he loves his country more than he cares for his own place in the social order." - Valentine 

  • "As long as there was coffee in the world, how bad could things be" - Clary

  • "The darkness was still there, but it had resolved itself into familiar night sky punctuated by stars."

  • "You told him the truth and he made up his own mind what he wanted to do about that. Everyone has choices to make; no one has the right to take those choices away from us. Not even out of love" - Lucian Graymark 

  • "Or perhaps this hostility of yours is the pretense. Love does make liars out of your kind.”- The Seelie Queen

  • "It had been like opening up a vein of something unknown inside her body, something hotter and sweeter and bitterer than blood."

  • “No. I think when you imagine something often enough, the reality of it seems—”“Anticlimactic?”

  • Somebody’s girlfriend,” she said. “Somebody’s sister, somebody’s daughter. All these things I never knew I was before, and I still don’t really know what I am.”. “Isn’t that always the question,” Luke said,
  • Some guys look at you like they want sex. Jace looks at you like you’ve already had sex, it was great, and now you’re just friends—even though you want more. Drives girls crazy. You know what I mean?”
    Yes, Clary thought. “No,” she said.
  • "You disappear so completely into your head sometimes,” he said. “I wish I could follow you.”
    You do, she wanted to say. You live in my head all the time. "

So, guys this was pretty much a round-up of my favorite quotes from the second part. If  you liked these, be sure to check out these quotes from part one too! Quotes from City of Bones

Quotes from All Your Perfects

Fun fact; I never wanted to read this novel. I read it's summary and I decided that it was a tad bit too sad for me. I mean a couple battling infertility, I couldn't relate. So, why subject myself to feel that.  It was only a certain turn of events that made me start this book. It was such a hard time for me.  Anyway, I started this book as a reprieve which I am still glad for. It was seriously one of the best books I've ever read. It wasn't perfect; the ending wasn't perfect at all, yet somehow it was as perfect as realistically possible. I have cherished every word of this hook. Cried almost at every page. Laughed at every other page. Fell in love with both protagonists and in the midst of it, developed a different outlook for my life.  So, yeah this book does hold a special place in my heart and I've handpicked the best quotes here for you!  It always works that way with men, doesn’t it? They somehow look manlier into their thirties and forties than they did ...

6 of the most underrated quotes you'll ever read!

Hey!  Since this blog is supposed to be all about quotes, I've dug deep into the treasures of my beloved Samsung Notes to find some cute quotes from underrated books.  Some of these books I really enjoyed, others not so much; however, I have a habit of highlighting any sequence of words that moves me. This ensures that I have it preserved for future generations.  I am completely joking, by the way.  Anyways, here you go! "It’s a look of Hello you, and Oh my God, it’s you, and I can’t believe how good it is to see you, all in one." "We were each other’s chrysalis love, we grew together until we couldn’t grow together any more."   "For a second we hold a silent conversation with just our eyes. I tell him that I know he’s running away from the responsibility and stress of the city life awaiting him back in London, and he tells me he can paper over the cracks in my heart and make me better again." "I’m not a bitch though; or maybe I’m just a quiet one...

The best quotes from "City of Glass"

City of Glass has got to be my favorite part in the entire series. I mean so many things fall into place and it's a beautiful feeling when things finally fall into place after so long. Anyway, I was really excited about posting these so let's get to it!  Wasn't there some sort of manly code that precluded discussions like this-discussions about feelings? -Simon,  "The first time Simon had ever seen Isabel e, he'd found her so striking, so alight with life and vitality and energy, he'd thought he'd final y found a girl who burned bright enough to blot out the image of Clary that always seemed to be printed on the inside of his eyelids. It was right around the time she'd gotten him turned into a rat at Magnus Bane's loft party that he'd realized maybe Isabel e burned a little too bright for an ordinary guy like him" -Simon "it sucked to be old enough to want to know what was going on, but so young you were always dismissed."
