| 223ea2f | She had asked: What is he? A friend or an enemy? The alethiometer answered: He is a murderer. When she saw the answer, she relaxed at once. He could find food, and show her how to reach Oxford, and those were powers that were useful, but he might still have been untrustworthy or cowardly. A murderer was a worthy companion. She felt as safe with him as she'd done with Iorek Byrnison the armoured bear. | Philip Pullman | ||
| 5cdca8c | Because that's what it would catch in the wild, a boar, right? I can't wait to see a pack of bunnycats take down a wild hog with those short tiny legs. Wouldn't the boar be surprised?"

| 6fc9d5f | So you got fired?" "I quit." "When I quit the Order, you told me I was besmirched." "That's because you quit in a huff over some silliness like trying to save people's lives.

Curran offered Luther his hand. "Lennart." Luther grabbed Curran's hand and smel.. | Ilona Andrews | ||

| e069c83 | Would you like to assist me with my choice of underwear as well?" My sarcasm whistled right over his head. "I would be delighted. While I'd love to see you in a balconette bra, I'm afraid for this particular occasion I would have to go with a foam-lined seamless due to the tight fit of the garment across your breasts . . . Perhaps I could come over and review what you have available . . ." | Ilona Andrews | ||
| 5bce551 | He stepped forward. "We've been together a year. How many times have you seen me hunt?" Umm. "How many times, Kate?" "None." "That's because I don't hunt. I'm a male lion.

I'm your captive. Your . . . victim. Yes, that's the right word. All of that education. How come nobody ever explained to you that you can't just kidnap people because you feel like it?" | nevada-baylor | Ilona Andrews | |

| 3ed5a8d | My youngest brother killed a lynx yesterday," Rose said. "Apparently it came into his territory and left some spray marks. He skinned it, smeared himself in its blood, and put its pelt on his shoulders like a cape. And that's how he came dressed for breakfast." Cerise drank some beer. "My sister kills small animals and hangs their corpses on a tree, because she thinks she is a monster and she's convinced we'll eventually banish her from th.. | Ilona Andrews | ||

| 1a4b730 | Do you know that feeling? When everything you do seems like a struggle. Where you dont wanna leave the house because you know everyone is judging you. Where you cant even ask for directions in fear that they critise you. Where everyone always seems to be picking out your flaws. That feeling where you feel so damn sick for no reason. Do you know that feeling where you look in the mirror and completly hate what you see.

| 3dac2b6 | The craft's occupants clutched their armrests, and more than one of them closed their eyes. But not Artemis. He couldn't.

| 5c7d4a3 | Was there anything else? asked the centaur. Did Artemis say or do anything else? Holly shook her head miserably.

Frank's odd manner when I spoke about Rebecca. Beatrice and her rather diffident negative attitude.
