| fdcbb52 | If a White Court vampire wants to feed off a human, all she really has to do is crook her finger, and he comes running. There isn't any ominous music. Nobody sparkles. As far as anyone looking on is concerned, a girl winks at a boy and goes off somewhere to make out. Happens every day. They don't get | Jim Butcher | ||
| fd2f054 | All we need is a stuffed animal." He stared at me. "Wh-what did you say?" "A stuffed animal, man!" I roared at him. "Don't mess with a wizard when he's wizarding!" | Jim Butcher | ||

| 4ff929c | when women have a conversation, they're communicating on five levels. They follow the conversation that they're actually having, the conversation that is specifically being avoided, the tone being applied to the overt conversation, the buried conversation that is being covered only in subtext, and finally the other person's body language. | Jim Butcher | ||
| bfcd177 | when they really, selflessly love each other it changes them both. It lingers on in the energy of their lives, even when they are apart. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 1f68492 | I didn't know this before, but as it turns out, Tyrannosaurs can really haul ass. | humor | Jim Butcher | |
| 34bef95 | Here's something else I bet you didn't know about Tyrannosaurs: they don't corner well. | Jim Butcher | ||

| 28a885c | A lot can change in a year. | Jim Butcher | ||
| ff3f0a3 | Subtle and quick to anger?" "Not so subtle." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 0c43830 | I'm not stupid. I've got eyes. I see some things everyone else tries to pretend aren't there. This vampire craze sweeping the nation. Why the hell shouldn't there be some genuine vampires in it? | Jim Butcher | ||
| 740a3ec | How bad is it?" "They drafted me," I said. "That's bad, all right," Bob said cheerfully." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 3a7f339 | My choices are measured against my own soul. Not against the stains on theirs. | Jim Butcher | ||
| bb76e89 | I took a moment to study the wards. They were a smooth patchwork of enchantment, probably the result of several lesser talents working together. Somebody like me can put up a ward that is like a huge iron wall. This was more like a curtain of tightly interwoven steel rings. For most purposes, both would serve fairly well -- but with the right tool, the latter kind of wall is easily dealt with. "And I'm the tool," I muttered. Then I thought .. | Jim Butcher | ||
| f6eae28 | I nodded and sipped my own. Wow. Mac's beer is an excellent argument that there is a God, and that furthermore, He wants us to be happy. | Jim Butcher | ||

| a2212f0 | Somewhere along the way, their passion had become bottled anger. The anger had fermented into bitter hatred. Then the hatred had fed upon itself, gnawing away at them over years, even decades, until only a shell of cold iron and colder hate remained. | Jim Butcher | ||
| d2c4ef4 | But a century from now, your mortal associates will be rotting in the earth, whereas, barring amputation or radical shifts in fashion, you will still be putting your pants on one leg at a time. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 147c45e | There had to be something I could do. Had to be. There had to be. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 298e654 | Monsters are born of pain and grief and loss and anger. Your heart is full of them. | Jim Butcher | ||
| e4f0024 | I trust you," she said. Three words. Big ones. Especially coming from her." -- | Jim Butcher | ||
| 538ec9e | Finish that sentence, Raith, and we throw down," said Murphy in a calm, level voice." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 55542ac | I know I've screwed up," I said. "I'm going to have to live with that. But I don't want to lose you." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 46e3b39 | You go back," Jack said. "And you catch the scum who did you." "Back?" I said. "Back to ..." "Earth, yeah," Jack said. "Chicago." He closed the folder and dropped it into his out-box. "You gotta find out who killed you." I arched an eyebrow at him. "You're kidding." | Jim Butcher | ||

| 0015385 | He stalked through the narrow streets and wound his way down an alley between two buildings to an old, rotting wooden door. He paused to knock at it, three measured strokes followed by two quick ones, and it opened at once. Her batman, Sark, stood on the other side of it. The fellow reminded Espira of a hunting spider--he was warriorborn, tall, gaunt, with long, slender limbs and hands that seemed a little too large for the rest of him. His.. | Jim Butcher | ||

| 7d60c17 | My doubts vanished as well. Doubt was for things that did not know their purpose, and I knew mine. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 996a1a9 | The very sound of Creation still echoes throughout the vast darkness: The universe remembers. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 37bcbcf | You are the help." "We're in trouble," I said." | Jim Butcher | ||
| d97ab59 | I'm dealing with a lot of scary things," she said. "I think you have to react to them. And you either laugh at them or you go insane. Or you become like Martin. Shut off from everything and everyone. Trying not to feel." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 48b42cc | Paranoid? Probably. But just because you're paranoid doesn't mean that there isn't an invisible demon about to eat your face. | Jim Butcher | ||
| ac12bac | The council is old school. Really, really old school. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 833d454 | Writing writhed across the surface of the stone, runes that looked a little familiar. Norse, maybe? Some of them looked more like Egyptian. They seemed to take something from several different sources, leaving them unreadable. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 7d5a7d8 | We just have to have faith. The good Lord wouldn't give us more than we could bear. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 3371a19 | I don't always knock down doors," I said. "Sometimes it's a wall." | Jim Butcher | ||
| 4f3d14b | There's more magic in a baby's first giggle than in any firestorm a wizard can conjure up, and don't let anyone tell you any different. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 3f2b6ef | another pang of half-remembered days long gone made my chest ache for a second. | Jim Butcher | ||
| 07064dd | I was scared. Not in that half-pleasant adrenaline-charged way, but quietly scared. Wait-on-the-results-of-medical-tests scared. It's a rational sort of fear that puts a lawn chair down in the front of your thoughts and brings a cooler of drinks along with it. | Jim Butcher | ||
