Love this job, Sanya murmured. Just love it. I need to challenge more people to duels, Thomas said in agreement. Men are pigs, Murphy said. Amen, said Molly. Lea gave me a prim look and said, I've not sacrificed a holy virgin in ages.

There is, I think, humor here which does not translate well from English into sanity.

Maybe,” he said in a slow, rural drawl, “you could explain to me why I found you in the middle of an orgy.” “Well,” I said, “if you’re going to be in an orgy, the middle is the best spot, isn’t it.

You don't go walking into the proverbial lion's den lightly. You start with a good breakfast.

I love being a wizard. Every day is like Disneyland.

Kincaid, evidently exhausted himself, drew a gun, took the safety off, placed it on his chest, and went to sleep too. It's cute, I whispered to Murphy. He has a teddy Glock.

Somewhere out there was a village I'd deprived of it's idiot.
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
Just like credit card companies, or those student loan people. Now there's evil for you.
Jim Butcher
Now I feel like James Bond. Suave and intelligent, breaking all the codes while looking fabulous.
Jim Butcher
Oh, I get it, I said. You're Evil Harry, lurking inside Good Harry. Right? And you only come out at night?
Jim Butcher
Faith is about what you do. It's about aspiring to be better and nobler and kinder than you are. It's about making sacrifices for the good of others-- even when there's not going to be anyone telling you what a hero you are.
Jim Butcher
No rest for the wicked, Bob, and that means that we can't slack off either, or they'll outwork us.
Jim Butcher
Everyone is down on pain, because they forget something important about it: Pain is for the living. Only the dead don't feel it.
Jim Butcher
There are old swordsmen and bold swordsmen. But few old, bold swordsmen.

Isana laughed. And you, lady? Are you a woman of conscience or of ambition? The lady smiled. That's a question rarely asked here at court. And why is that? Because a woman of conscience would tell you that she is a person of conscience. A woman of ambition would tell you that she is a person of conscience—only much more convincingly.
