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.

I guess maybe you don’t get to be the Merlin of the White Council by saving up frequent-flier miles
Jim Butcher
Molly, you are a good person. Don't let anyone take that away from you. Not even yourself.

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.

I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass.

It turns out that Molly wasn't her mother's daughter in that respect. Charity was like the MacGuyver of the kitchen. She could whip up a five-course meal for twelve from an egg, two spaghetti noodles, some household chemicals, and a stick of chewing gum. Molly ... Molly once burned my egg. My boiled egg.

No matter where you go, there you are. (Uriel to Harry Dresden)

I'm so pretty, it's hard for me to think of myself as intelligent.
Jim Butcher
Sometimes I think that's where most of us are. Fighting off the crazy as best we can. Trying to become something better than we were. It's that second bit that's important.
Jim Butcher
But I am dead certain--ba-dump-bump-ching--that I'm the first guy to lead an army of spirits in an assault from the spirit-world side...and had them start off screaming, BOO!
Jim Butcher
There should be a rule against your own inner monologue throwing around that much sarcasm.
Jim Butcher
There aren't any magical words, really. Words just hold the magic.
Jim Butcher
Many women have earned titles, Your Grace. It doesn't seem to have been a factor in whether or not they actually received them.
Jim Butcher
Being a wizard gives you more power than most, but it doesn't change your heart. We're all human. We're all of us equally naked before the jaws of pain.
Jim Butcher
Have you ever been approached by a grim-looking man, carrying a naked sword with a blade about ten miles long in his hand, in the middle of the night, beneath the stars on the shores of Lake Michigan? If you have, seek professional help. If you have not, then believe you me, it can scare the bejeezus out of you.
Jim Butcher
I can't be under arrest now... I don't have time.
Jim Butcher
Night wasn't so much falling as sharpening its claws.
Jim Butcher
My main source for faith-based stuff is mostly the Bible, and a childhood with a much, much higher-than-median exposure to theological thought.
Jim Butcher
Man. Being mostly dead is hard on a guy.
