City Of Fallen Angels Quotes

“The door buzzer sounded again. The two boys exchanged a single look before both bolting down the narrow hallway to the door. Jordan got there first. He grabbed for the coatrack that stood by the door, ripped the coats off it, and flung the door wide, the rack held aboe his head like a javelin.
On the other side of the door was Jace. He blinked. "Is that a coatrack?"
Jordan slammed the coatrack down on the ground and sighed. "If you'd been a vampire, this would have been a lot more useful."
"Yes," said Jace. "Or, you know, just someone with a lot of coats.”

“Simon turned to Jordan, who was lying down across the futon, his head propped against one of the woven throw pillows. "How much of that did you hear?"
"Enough to gather that we're going to a party tonight," said Jordan. "I heard about the Ironworks event. I'm not in the Garroway pack, so I wasn't invited."
"I guess you're coming as my date now." Simon shoved the phone back into his pocket.
"I'm secure enough in my masculinity to accept that," said Jordan. "We'd better get you something nice to wear, though," he called as Simon headed back into his room. "I want you to look pretty.”

“What about you, little girl? You going to be a Shadowhunter like your dad?"
Clary tried to hide her annoyance. "No," she said. "I'm going to be a Shadowhunter, but I'm not going to be like my father. And my name's Clarissa, but you can call me Clary."
The elevator came to a stop; the doors slid open. The warlock woman's blue eyes rested on Clary for a moment. "Oh, I know your name," she said. "Clarissa Morgenstern. Little girl who stopped a big war.”

“—Tal vez siempre has sido sabio —dijo Jace—. Recuerdo que cuando te pregunté si querías ser mi parabatai, tú me dijiste que necesitabas un día para pensar en ello. Y luego volviste y dijiste que sí, y cuando te pregunté por qué accediste a hacerlo, dijiste que era porque necesitaba a alguien que me cuidara. Tenías razón. Nunca pensé en ello de nuevo, porque nunca tuve que hacerlo. Te tengo, y siempre has cuidado de mí. Siempre

—No —dijo Alec—. No hables así.
—No ¿Por qué?
—Porque —dijo Alec—. Así es como la gente habla cuando piensan que van a morir”

“Magnus loves you. He wouldn't love you if you were the sort of person who could abandon someone helpless”
― Cassandra Clare, City of Fallen Angels

“But Magnus-he thought- you never told me . Never warned me it would be like this, that i would wake up one day and realize that i was going somewhere you couldn't follow. That we are essentially not the same. There's no "till death do us part" for those who never die”

“No, I mean it. You don't look good."

“That guy over there in the corner is totally looking the other way,” Jace observed, pointing at the TV screen. “A spinning wheel kick would put him out of commission.”

“I can’t kick people in this game. I can only shoot them. See?” Kyle mashed some buttons.

“That’s stupid.” Jace looked over and seemed to see Simon for the first time. “Back from your breakfast meeting, I see,” he said without much welcome in his tone. “I bet you thought you were very clever, sneaking off like that.”

“Come poteva desiderare dell'altro, quando aveva Jace?
Ma forse, le venne da pensare, avere qualcuno non era mai davvero possibile. Forse, per quanto si possa amare una persona, lei può sempre scivolarti via dalle dita come acqua, senza che tu possa farci niente. Ora capiva perché la gente parlava i cuori ‘infranti’: si sentiva come se il suo fosse di vetro rotto, con le schegge come coltelli che le trafiggevano il petto ogni volta che respirava.”

“Personal Neon - Poem by Falguni Ray


I am devoid of genius
that is why I can touch my nose with my tongue
and prove that I am really a genius
Sometimes while walking in front of
Manik Bandyopadhyay's house I brood
about the street on which he once walked
I am also on the same road, but worthless, Falguni Ray
walking, sometimes I travel
in second class in trams and I
imagine this was the tram that overran and crushed
the body of Jibanananda Das
This is the way I travel--
earth sun stars accompany me.”

“your paddy ridden field in baishak is my soul’s stamp – not the heart’s
in the winter fog i exhale smoke - not a cigarette's
in bed bereft of a woman i masturbate early in the morning
in whose tummy will my child arrive
one for which i will provide two morsels of rice?
without a party flag i have been surviving without
the love of a woman i have been surviving in order to listen to
rabindranath’s songs at twelve thirty in the afternoon sun i have been surviving
no i never wanted to be rabindranath never ever i have never wanted to love
sumita never ever had never wanted her body have never wanted mita’s
body had only wanted her love but nothing happened to me
but of course the khan army in bangladesh the US mines from the coast of tonkin
and the CRPF hiding behind the sand bags in kolkata have left
the china nixon treaty has been signed white black America has sent”

“What they had wasn’t ordinary, or subject to the ordinary rules of relationships and breakups. They belonged to each other totally, and always would, and that was that.

But maybe everyone felt that way? Until the moment they’d realized they were just like everyone else, and everything they thought was real shattered apart.”
