Always keep mint on your windowsill in August, to ensure that buzzing flies will stay outside, where they belong. Don't think the summer is over, even when roses droop and turn brown and the stars shift position in the sky. Never presume August is a safe or reliable time of the year.

I know you can throw holy water on the vampire, but I didn't know you could throw the host. (Sheriff St. John) I had to smile. They aren't like little holy grenades. I want the host to give to the Quinlans so they can put one at every windowsill, every doorsill. (Anita Blake)
