Quote

His parting shot to me had been, I don't want to love someone who is more at home with the monsters than I am. What do you say to that? What can you say? Damned if I know. They say love conquers everything. They lie.

That was the problem with loving people: it made you weak. It made you need them. It made the thought of not having them the worst thing in the world.

All I really wanted to do was cuddle back under the blankets, maybe with a certain stuffed toy penguin I knew. Yeah, hiding sounded good.

Just what I needed—a necromancer with an attitude. Oh, wait, I was a necromancer with an attitude.

I, Anita Blake, scourge of the undead-the human with more vampire kills than any other vampire executioner in the country-was dating a vampire. It was poetically ironic.

He said,'Trust yourself, mon ami. You are not your friend with his so-sad tale. And Anita is not human. Through us she is more than that. Both of us huddle around her humanity like it is the last candle flame in a world of darkness. But by our very love, we make her less human, and more.

I hate being awake at three in the morning. It is the godforsaken heart of darkness when the body runs slow, and the brain runs slower, and all you want to do is sleep.

Your heart is not a wound to be poked at to see if the scab is ready to come off. You can be healed of that very old pain, if you’ll just let it happen. (Marianne)

A certain type of man, when he loves for the first time, his love is not really love, it is possession. Possessions don't have rights or feelings they are something to owned and controlled. He had spent more than a year trying to do just that, and failing.

It has been my experience that women tell more intimate details to their friends than men do. Men may brag more, but women will talk the nitty-gritty and share the experience more.

Sometimes you can learn things from the way a person denies something. The choice of lies can be almost as helpful as the truth.

You can't save everybody. In fact, there are days when I think you can't save anyone. Each person has to save himself first, then you can move in and help. I have found this philosophy does not work during a gun battle, or a knife fight either. Outside of that it works just fine.

So many of us had been armed that there were holsters and weapons scattered among the passed-out bodies like mercenary prizes in a fleshy Cracker Jack box.

One thing I've learned about vampires--they keep pulling new rabbits out of their cloaks. Big, fanged, carnivorous bunnies that'll eat your eyeballs if you're not paying attention.
