Clary, you're an artist, like your mother. That means you see the world in ways that other people don't. It's your gift, to see the beauty and the horror in ordinary things. It doesn't make you crazy — just different. There's nothing wrong with being different.

Cassandra Clare
Clary stopped dead in her tracks. Simon? Oh, God, said Jace, sounding resigned. And here I'd actually hoped I'd got hold of something interesting. -Clary and Jace pg. 114
Cassandra Clare
I don't suppose it would be possible to, er, step on him?
Cassandra Clare
It didn’t matter, anyway. There was only one thing she could ask for, in the end, only one real choice. She raised her eyes to the Angel’s. Jace, she said.
Cassandra Clare
You've always been what you are. That's not new. What you'll get used to is knowing it.
Cassandra Clare
I would have given it up--all of it up--to be married to you for a day. A day that would never have come. You are a reminder--a reminder of everything I am losting. The Life I will not have.
Cassandra Clare
Ladies' hearts are like china on a mantelpiece. There are so many of them, and it is so easy to break them without noticing.
Cassandra Clare
