More quotes by Jim Butcher
Just like credit card companies, or those student loan people. Now there's evil for you.
Jim Butcher
Paranoid? Probably. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face.
Jim Butcher
Maybe they'd use biological or chemical weapons instead. Maybe they'd crash the world economy. Maybe they'd turn every program on television into one of those reality shows. That's mostly done already, Harry. Oh. Well. I've got to believe that the world is worth saving anyway.
Jim Butcher
No story that juicy was going to stay secret for long.
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.
Jim Butcher
I checked my gear, my pockets, my shoelaces, and realized that I had crossed the line between making sure I was ready and trying to postpone the inevitable.
Jim Butcher
Kids. You gotta love them. I adore children. A little salt, a squeeze of lemon--perfect.
Jim Butcher
So? Bob said. Hat up, go kill her. Problem solved. Bob, I said. You can't just go around killing people. I know. That's why you should do it. No, no. I can't go around killing people, either.
Jim Butcher
I just stood there staring, because while I've seen a lot of weird things, I hadn't ever seen that.
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.
Jim Butcher
...as nervous as a bird in a coal mine.
Jim Butcher
You are a drug dealer. To tiny faeries. Shame. Sanya to Dresden
Jim Butcher
...you look like you fell out of a crazy tree and hit every branch on the way down.
Jim Butcher
Just remember that you're on my list, Marcone. Soon as I get done with all the other evils in this town, you won't be the lesser of them anymore. Marcone stared at me with half-lidded eyes and said, Eek.
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
The wacky thing about those bad guys is that you can't count on them to be obvious. They forget to wax their mustaches and goatees, leave their horns at home, send their black hats to the dry cleaner's. They're funny like that.
Jim Butcher
For me chivalry isn't dead it's an involuntary reflex.
Jim Butcher
It is the prerogative of wizards to be grumpy. It is not, however, the prerogative of freelance consultants who are late on their rent, so instead of saying something smart, I told the woman on the phone, Yes, ma'am. How can I help you today?
Jim Butcher
Love is another kind of power, which shouldn't surprise you. Magic comes from emotions, among other things.
Jim Butcher
I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass.
