[Myrnin to Claire about their costumes of Pierrot and Harlequin, respectively]
Don't they teach you anything in your schools?
Not about this.
Pity. I suppose that's what comes of your main education flowing from Google.Rachel Caine Quote #3
„...And he doesn't like you to call him Mr. McStabby, you know.
Have you ever seen him cutting up that meat? He is like an artist with slicing. And that knife is as long as my arm. Mr. McStabby it is.Rachel Caine Quote #4
„I won’t lie, it was awful, but what was worse was slowly realizing how bad I’d been. How close I’d been to becoming . . . a thing. A senseless monster.
Rachel Caine Quote #5
„Oliver paused for a few seconds, then leaned forward with his elbows braced on his knees, pale hands dangling. “When I was . . . transformed, I thought in the beginning that I could stay with those mortals I loved. It isn’t smart. You should understand this by now. We stay apart for a reason.”
“You stay apart so you don’t feel guilty for doing what it is you do,” I shot back. “I’m not like you. I’ll never be like you. Best of all, I don’t have to be.Rachel Caine Quote #6
„We didn’t anticipate that the formula would trigger such a violent response. In the future, you’ll only receive the unprocessed raw materials.”
“So it’s because I’m young.”
“No,” he said. “It’s because you’re young and you refuse to acknowledge what you are. What it means. What it promises. You’re fighting your condition, and that makes it almost impossible for you to control yourself. You need to admit it to yourself, Michael. You’ll never be human again.Rachel Caine Quote #7
„What kind of stupid trip is this? So far, I’ve been assaulted, insulted, arrested, and now I’m tied to a chair by a bunch of vampires in case they crave a little O negative at lunch. And my boyfriend is out there somewhere, dodging sunbeams. This sucks!
Rachel Caine Quote #8
A disrespectful young woman...something I was called more than once. Something ever woman of quality is called sooner or later, by a man who feels they do not know their place. As we do not, because our place is as lofty as we may aspire to climb. It is the language of men who fear women.
Rachel Caine Quote #9
A rap at the back door made her jump, and she peered through the window for a long time before she eased open the door a crack. She left the security chain on. 'What do you want, Richard?'
Richard Morrell's police cruiser was parked in the drive. He hadn't flashed any lights or howled any sirens, so she supposed it wasn't an emergency, exactly. But she knew him well enough to know he didn't pay social visits, at least not to the Glass House.
'Good question,' Richard said. 'I guess I want a nice girl who can cook, likes action movies, and looks good in short skirts. But I'll settle for you taking the chain off the door and letting me in.Rachel Caine Quote #10
Afternoons are hard. Mornings are pure evil from the pits of hell, which is why I don't do them anymore.
Rachel Caine Quote #11
Ah, Morganville. Where dressing to hide blood stains was just good daily planning.
Rachel Caine Quote #12
Ahh . . . maybe we should be going,” Shane said. “Ditch the shoes, Eve. We’ll be running now.”
“I love these shoes!”
“More than your circulatory system?”
Eve silently kicked off the stilettos and backed up.Rachel Caine Quote #13
Am I not ninja enough? Are you saying that I lack ninja?
Rachel Caine Quote #14
Amelie said, “I won’t be your servant in Morganville. Nor should you be mine. Equals.” She offered her hand to him, and he looked down at it, clearly taken aback. But he took it. “Now defend what is ours, my partner.”
He grinned … grinned! … and whirled to meet Myrnin in midleap as Myrnin attacked.Rachel Caine Quote #15
Amelie seemed to focus on her again. For a few seconds she regarded her, frowning, and then smiled just a little. So I recall, she said. Not all wars are waged with bullets and swords, indeed. Some are wars of wills and ideas. It's good we both remember that. The smile faded. But not all ideas win the war, and not all wills are strong enough. Darkness can descend so easily.
Rachel Caine Quote #16
And about Shane, I swear, if he doesn't snap out of it, I'm going to punch him in the face. Well, punch him in the face and then run like hell.
- Eve RosserRachel Caine Quote #17
And then I heard the ring of metal on concrete, and I went cold, because one of them had found a piece of rebar lying around, and I knew with sudden certainty that these guys were going to kill me right here on this stupid sidewalk, for nothing, without even the reason of knowing my name or hating my politics. They were just going to kill me because they needed to kill something, and I was handy.
At least zombies would have had a reason.Rachel Caine Quote #18
And without forgiveness, there is never any peace.
Rachel Caine Quote #19
Any fool can kill. It takes genius to create.
Rachel Caine Quote #20
Any requests on the kind of car?”
“Something with armor?” she said. “Oooh, and headrest DVD. Bonus for surround sound.”
“Rocket launchers,” Michael said.
“One hot yellow Hummer with optional mass destruction package, coming up.Rachel Caine Quote #21
Are the two of you quite done with your sweet nothings? Because I might vomit.
Rachel Caine Quote #22
Are you all right? The question surprised Jess, and it broke through his black shell enough to make him throw a look at his friend. No. I didn't think you were. Everyone wants you to be. That must be worse, that they think you should be fine.
Rachel Caine Quote #23
at least this way we're safe in a room with a door that locks. And the sign says they have HBO.
That stands for Horrible Bloody Ohmygod. Eve said. which is the way they kill you. When you think you're safe.Rachel Caine Quote #24
At least you left out the oh-my-God sauce this time.
Made myself a batch with it, Shane said. It's got the biohazard sticker on it in the fridge, so don't bitch if you get flamed.Rachel Caine Quote #25
At the very leadt, we can grab Monica and hustle her skanky ass back to her dad wile you brave, strong menfolk hold off the bad guys. Right?
Rachel Caine Quote #26
Bad men skulking in the darkness have always been there, and always will.
Rachel Caine Quote #27
Bathroom, maybe? Which is where I need to go.
Ooh, me, too, Eve said.
The boys rolled their eyes, like they'd planned it.
What? It's what girls do. Get over it.Rachel Caine Quote #28
Because Oliver wants you, and what Oliver wants, Oliver gets, right? So get your sweet little butt up already.”
“Hey,” Shane said, and stood up. “I’m not telling you again, Jase. Stop.”
“What, because I said she had a sweet little butt? You don’t think she does? Hard to believe, since you spend so much time staring at it.Rachel Caine Quote #29
Because you've got guy parts, you're automatically a better mechanic than me? I don't think so, Eve said, and bailed out of the passenger side.
Rachel Caine Quote #30
Best to flee now, before the pitchforks and torches and scientists come calling.
