More quotes by Jim Butcher
The distinction between good and evil is meaningless if one does not have the freedom to choose between them.
Jim Butcher
I put it down to the paranoia of advancing age. It isn't like I'm all that old or anything, especially for a wizard, but age is always advancing and I'm fairly sure it's up to no good.
Jim Butcher
It's not my fault all women like motorcycles, Murph. They're basically huge vibrators. With wheels.
Jim Butcher
I put on the boots and kicked some monster ass.
Jim Butcher
I am blind and limited. I would be a fool think myself wise. And so, not knowing what the universe means, I can only try to be responsible with the knowledge, the strength, and the time given to me. I must be true to my heart.
Jim Butcher
God save me from idealists.
Jim Butcher
I'd been in hairier situations than this one. Actually, it's sort of depressing, thinking how many times I'd been in them. But if experience had taught me anything, it was this: No matter how screwed up things are, they can get a whole lot worse.

Karrin, eh? Thomas asked. I nodded. She's real serious about order. A man dying, she can understand. A man coming back. That's different. Isn't she Catholic? Thomas asked. Don't they have a guy?
Jim Butcher
I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass.
Jim Butcher
I could buy that she would murder me in a fit of rage, poison me out of flaming jealousy, or bomb my car out of sheer, stubborn pique. But she would never do it and feel nothing.
Jim Butcher
I would hit you on the head with a rock and drag you away from this. But it would only shatter the rock.
Jim Butcher
You never get a straight answer from captains. You should know that by now.
Jim Butcher
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.
Jim Butcher
My head was throbbing, and my hands were shaking, but I went down the ladder to my workroom - and started figuring out how to rip someone's heart out of his chest from fifty miles away. Who says I never do anything fun on a Friday night?
Jim Butcher
Do you want your blood to stay where it is sochar-lar? Tavi lifted both eyebrows at the unfamiliar word, and glanced at Varg. Monkey, Varg supplied, in Aleran. And male-child. He called me monkey boy? Tavi asked.
Jim Butcher
Life is too short, Harry. And there's nowhere near enough joy in it. If you find it, grab it. Before it's gone.
Jim Butcher
I kept a straight face while my inner Neanderthal spluttered and then went on a mental rampage through a hypothetical produce section, knocking over shelves and spattering fruit everywhere in sheer frustration, screaming, 'JUST TELL ME WHOSE SKULL TO CRACK WITH MY CLUB, DAMMIT!
Jim Butcher
Just like credit card companies, or those student loan people. Now there's evil for you.
Jim Butcher
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.
Jim Butcher
Caring about someone isn't complicated. It isn't easy. But it isn't complicated, either. Kinda like lifting the engine block out of a car.
