More quotes by Jim Butcher

Jim Butcher
The U.S. isn't a perfect place, but it's better than most people have managed to come up with. And all my stuff is there.
Jim Butcher
Life is full of toil, sacrifice, and pain, and from the time we stop growing, we know that we've begun dying. We watch helplessly as year by year, our bodies age and fail, while our survival instincts compel us to keep on going-which means living with the terrifying knowledge that ultimately death is inescapable.
Jim Butcher
In my judgment, my buildings are less likely to burn to the ground during one of your visits if you are disoriented from being treated like a sultan.
Jim Butcher
It was never too late to learn something. The past is unalterable in any event. The future is the only thing we can change. Learning the lessons of the past is the only way to shape the present and the future.

Chili dogs, funnel cakes, fried bread, majorly greasy pizza, candy apples, ye gods. Evil food smells amazing -- which is either proof that there is a Satan or some equivalent out there, or that the Almighty doesn't actually want everyone to eat organic tofu all the time. I can't decide.

Alone. It's one of those small words that means entirely too much. Like fear. Or trust.
Jim Butcher
He had hard, steady eyes, and all the comforting, reassuring charm of a dental drill. - Harry Dresden describing Morgan
Jim Butcher
People always equate beauty with good, but it just ain't so.
Jim Butcher
There's power in the night. There's terror in the darkness. Despite all our accumulated history, learning, and experience, we remember. We remember times when we were too small to reach the light switch on the wall, and when darkness itself was enough to make us cry out in fear.
Jim Butcher
Don't call me a dinosaur. It isn't fair to the dinosaurs. What did a dinosaur ever do to you?
Jim Butcher
No matter where you go, there you are. (Uriel to Harry Dresden)
Jim Butcher
Wizards and computers get along about as well as flamethrowers and libraries.
Jim Butcher
The best thing about my faerie godmother is that the creepy just keeps on coming.
Jim Butcher
I'm not a philosopher, Harry, [Michael] said. But here's something for you to think about, at least. What goes around comes around. And sometimes you get what's coming around. He paused for a moment, frowning faintly, pursing his lips. And sometimes you are what's coming around.

I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass.
Jim Butcher
Jump into an open grave? What kind of idiot are you? Butters replied. I might as well put on a red shirt and volunteer for the away team. There's snow and ice and slippery mud down there. That's like asking for an ironically broken neck.
Jim Butcher
Apocalypse is a frame of mind. [Nicodemus] said then. A belief. A surrender to inevitability. It is a despair for the future. It is the death of hope.
Jim Butcher
Just like credit card companies, or those student loan people. Now there's evil for you.
Jim Butcher
Everyone stopped to blink at that for a second. I mean, come on. Impaled by a guided frozen turkey missile. Even by the standards of the quasi-immortal creatures of the night, that ain't something you see twice. For my next trick, I panted into the startled silence, anvils.
