But everyone likes dogs," Cassandra protested.
"I don't dislike dogs. I just don't want one in my house."
"Our house." She braced her elbows on the table and massaged her temples. "I've always had dogs. Pandora and I couldn't have survived our childhood without Napoleon and Josephine. If cleanliness is what worries you, I'll make certain the dog is bathed often, and accidents will be disposed of right away."
That drew a grimace from him. "I don't want there to be accidents in the first place. Besides, you'll have more than enough to keep you busy- you won't have time for a pet."
"I need a dog."
Tom held the propelling pencil between his first and second fingers, and flipped it back and forth to make the ends tap on the table. "Let's look at this logically- you don't really need a dog. You're not a shepherd or a rat catcher. Household dogs serve no useful purpose."
"They fetch things," Cassandra pointed out.
"You'll have an entire staff of servants to fetch anything you want."
"I want a companion who'll go on walks with me, and sit on my lap while I pet him."
"You'll have me for that."
Cassandra pointed to the contract. "Dog," she insisted. "I'm afraid it's nonnegotiable. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
After she'd crossed the threshold, Tom said urgently, without thinking, "My lady?"
Slowly she reappeared, peeking at him from behind the doorjamb.
Tom wasn't sure what to say, only that he couldn't let her leave without thinking she was anything less than perfect, exactly as she was.
"You're not too plump," he said gruffly. "The more of you there is in the world, the better."
As far as compliments went, it wasn't exactly eloquent, or even appropriate. But amusement sparkled in the one blue eye that was visible before Cassandra vanished.
Every muscle in his body tensed with the instinct to follow her like a hound on the scent. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Just before they boarded the yacht, Cassandra glanced at Tom and reached up to a delicate necklace she'd worn constantly since the day he'd given it to her. She touched the little charm, made in the shape of Euler's infinity symbol, that hung at the hollow of her throat.
And as always, the private signal made him smile. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Also, I'm too plump. All my dresses are tight."
"You look the same as always."
"My dress had to be altered last night. It wouldn't button up the back."
Twisting stealthily in the chair, Tom peeked around the edge. His breath caught as he stared at her in wonder.
For the first time in his life, Tom Severin was smitten. Smitten and slain.
She was beautiful the way fire and sunlight were beautiful, warm and glowing and golden. The sight of here dealt him a famished, hollow feeling. She was everything he'd missed in his disadvantaged youth, every lost hope and opportunity. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
West turned his attention back to Cassandra. "Sweetheart, none of us could bear seeing you in a one-sided marriage. Don't expect Severin to change. You can't love someone into loving you back."
"I understand," Cassandra said. "But even if Tom is never able to return my feelings, he has qualities that make up for it."
"What qualities?" Devon asked, plainly bewildered. "I've always thought I understood you well, but this … you and Severin … it makes no sense to me."
As Cassandra considered how to explain, she heard Phoebe point out with a touch of amusement, "It's not that improbable, is it? Mr. Severin is a very attractive man."
Both Ravenel brothers looked at her blankly.
"Oh, yes," Kathleen agreed. "Not to mention charming."
West rolled his eyes and gave Devon a resigned glance. "He's always had it," he said flatly. "That thing women like."
"What thing?" Devon asked.
"The secret, mysterious thing I've always wished someone would explain so we could pretend to have it too. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Hearts don't start out frozen," Cassandra said wisely. "Something happened to you."
Mr. Severin gave her a slightly mocking glance. "How do you know so much about the heart?"
"I've read novels-" Cassandra began earnestly, and was disgruntled to hear his quiet laugh. "Many of them. You don't think a person can learn things from reading novels?"
"Nothing that actually applies to life." But the blue-green eyes contained a friendly sparkle, as if he found her charming.
"But life is what novels are about. A novel can contain more truth than a thousand newspaper articles or scientific papers. It can make you imagine, just for a little while, that you're someone else- and then you understand more about people who are different from you."
The way he listened to her was so very flattering, so careful and interested, as if he were collecting her words like flowers to be pressed in a book. "I stand corrected," he said. "I see I'll have to read one. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Tom couldn't take his gaze from Cassandra. Her wide, wondering eyes were like soft blue midnight, star-glittered with forgotten tears. The curves of her body looked firm and sweet, no hard angles or straight lines anywhere... nothing but inviting, sensual softness. If she were his... he might finally have the sense of ease other men had. No more spending every minute of the day striving and hungering and never feeling sated.
"I'll marry you," Tom told her. "Any time. Any terms. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
Mr. Severin smiled, tiny constellations of reflected chandelier lights glinting in his eyes. "Since I've told you about my tastes... what are yours?"
Cassandra looked down at her folded hands in her lap. "I like trivial things, mostly," she said with a self-deprecating laugh. "Handiwork, such as embroidery, knitting, and needlepoint. I sketch and paint a little. I like naps and teatime, and taking a lazy stroll on a sunny day, and reading books on a rainy afternoon. But I would like two have my own family someday, and... I want to help other people far more than I'm able to now. I take baskets of food and medicine to tenants and acquaintances in the village, but that's not enough. I want to provide real help to people who need it." She sighed shortly. "I suppose that's not very interesting. Pandora's the exciting, amusing twin, the one people remember. I've always been... well, the one who's not Pandora. ~ Lisa Kleypas
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Lisa Kleypas
It's about Will. About Will, and me."
"He loves you," Jem said. "I know he loves you. We spoke of it before he left here." Though the coldness had not returned to his voice, he sounded suddenly almost unnaturally calm.
Tessa was shocked. "I didn't know you had ever talked of it with each other. Will did not say."
"Nor did you ever tell me of his feelings, though you knew for months. We all have our secrets that we keep because we do not want to hurt the people who love us." There was a sort of warning in his voice, or was she imagining it? ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
He looked like the Phantom of the Opera. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
While this is all very amusing," said the Queen coolly, leaning forward, "the kiss that will free the girl is the kiss that she most desires." The cruel delight in her face and voice had sharpened, and her words seemed to stab into Clary's ears like needles. "Only that and nothing more." Simon looked as if she had hit him. Clary wanted to reach out to him, but she stood frozen to the spot, too horrified to move. "Why are you doing this?" Jace demanded. "I rather thought I was offering you a boon." Jace flushed, but said nothing. He avoided looking at Clary. Simon said, "That's ridiculous. They're brother and sister."
The Queen shrugged, a delicate twitch of her shoulders. "Desire is not always lessened by disgust. Nor can it be bestowed, like a favor, to those most deserving of it. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Why does it take girls so long to shower?" he demanded. "Mortal girls, Shadowhunters, female warlocks, you're all the same. I'm not getting any younger waiting out here."
-Magnus to Clary, pg.272- ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I knew then that Jocelyn would never come back to me, because of you. You are the only thing in the world she ever loved more than she loved me. And because of that she hates me. And because of that, I hate the sight of you ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
In my experience endings are false positives. Perhaps like a phoenix, out of the ashes of destruction we could be reborn."

-Cassandra Rainbow in PHOENIX- ~ Vaun Murphrey
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Vaun Murphrey
George had sent him a handful of postcards over the last two months. The front of each of them had borne a photograph of the idyllic Scottish countryside. And on the back, a series of messages circling a single theme:
Bored.
So bored.
Kill me now.
Too late, already dead. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Maybe one day it will be just you and me, my little blueberry," Magnus said conversationally. "But not for a long, long time. We'll take care of him, you and I. Won't we?"
Max Lightwood made a happy burbling sound that Magnus took as agreement. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Everyone has things they're afraid of. It's part of being human. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
It was easier to live in a truth than a lie. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
We as artists are actively encouraged - by other authors, your agent, publisher, and society - not to think about money, strategy, how to manage your career, how to create a brand, because we're supposed to focus on the art. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Do not seek revenge and call it justice. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Sometimes, someone you have known all your life becomes no longer familiar to you, but strange in a marvelous way, as if you have discovered a beach you have been visiting all your life is made not of sand but of diamonds, and they blind you with their beauty. -Malcom Fade, Lord of Shadows ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I want it to stop," he said. "Sophie says everyone is still searching for a cure for me. I know I gave Will my permission, but I want everyone to cease looking now, Charlotte. It is over. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I didn't lose everyone I loved." He looked up at her, and she saw that his eyes had gold in them too, precious bright flakes among the brown. "I had you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Growing up unafraid of the world is a good way to get destroyed by it ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
He closed his eyes. "I'm so tired, Tess," he said. "I only wanted pleasant dreams for once."
"That is not the way to get them, Will," she said softly. "You cannot buy or drug or dream your way out of pain. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
You're pining," said Jace.
Alec shrugged. "Look who's talking. 'oh I love her. Oh, she's my sister. Oh why, why, why - ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
You are unique in the world, just as you are unique in my heart, and there will never be a time when I do not love you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Jace looked as if she had slapped him. "Why are you determined not to believe us?"
"Because she loves you," said Valentine.
Clary felt the blood drain out of her face. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Jules: A house with Emma; laughing by a fire together.
All that would make it better would be his brothers and sisters somewhere nearby, where he could see them every day, where he could fence with Livvy and watch movies with Dru and help Tavvy learn the crossbow. Where he could look for animals with Ty, hermit crabs down by the edge of the water, scuttling under their shells. Where he could cook massive dinners with Mark and Helen and Aline and they'd all eat them together, out under the stars in the desert air. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Jealousy is such an ugly emotion. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
No one will stop you if you seem confident. They'll be too afraid of looking a fool if they question you. Always act as if you know exactly what you're doing and you can get away with anything. T'is the secret of life. ~ Cassandra Gannon
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Gannon
Whoever you have loved, and however you loved them," said Jem, "anyone you loved would be lucky. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
When I am in the darkness, I want to think of it in the light, with you. - James Carstairs ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
It's hard to believe how much light you cand find in the darkness, when you have someone who loves you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
It had been a whim, and there was nothing Magnus attached more importance to than a whim. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
You never cared that I was your sister before."
"Didn't I?" His black eyes flicked up and down her. "Our father's dead," he said. "There are no other relatives. You and I, we are the last. The last of the Morgensterns. You are the only one left whose blood runs in my veins, too. You are my last chance. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
He would look so young. They were both so young. Tessa knew it was unusual to marry at seventeen and eighteen, but they were racing a clock.
The clock of Jem's life, before it wound down. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
To murder freedom ... well, that's to murder my time. And no one should have the right to kill anyone else's time. ~ Cassandra Kemper
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Kemper
Little James Herondale, age two, was in fact holding a dagger quite well. He stabbed it into a sofa cushion, sending out a burst of feathers.
"Ducks," he said, pointing at the feathers. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
She jerked hastily back to avoid stepping on it, and her shoulder bumped his
he put a hand out to steady her, just as she turned to apologize and then she was somehow in the circle of his arm and he was kissing her. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
You can never love me. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare

Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
What about Annabel?"

"I hate her too", said Julian, without emotion. "There's plenty of room for me to hate them all". ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I thought if you stopped loving me, you'd be sad for a while. And if I was sad forever, that would be okay. Because you'd be alright, and I'd still be your parabatai. And if you could be happy eventually, then I could be happy too, for you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Magnus threw the curtains open and stepped onto the balcony of the hotel room. "Ah, Venice. There is no city in the world like you."
Alec trailed him outside and leaned over the railing. His gaze followed a gondola snaking along the canal and disappearing around a corner.
"It's a bit smelly."
"That's the ambiance."
Alec grinned. "Well, the ambiance is pretty strong. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I was looking for Simon." Jordan squinted at her. "It's two in the morning." She shrugged. "He's a vampire." "But I'm not. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
He seemed only ... annoyed. Annoyed, and sweaty, and hot.
"Yeah, well," he said, "the next time you decide to sneak out of our magically warded apartment through a door that shouldn't really exist, leave a note. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
You promise me, he said. That you love him. Enough to marry him and make him happy. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
I don't want tea," said Clary, with muffled force. "I want to find my mother. And then I want to find out who took her in the first place, and I want to kill them."
"Unfortunately," said Hodge, "we're all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it's either tea or nothing. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Right," said Marisol. "So, I don't explain modern medicine to you, and then a medical emergency occurs to me. It could be solved with the application of a little first aid, but you don't know that, and so I die. I die at your feet. Is that what you want, Jon?"
"No," said Jon. "What's first aid? Is there a ... second aid? ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Being remembered, and remembered so kindly, touched him more than he would have thought possible. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Charlotte, darling," Henry said to his wife, who was staring at him in gape-mouthed horror. Jessamine, beside her, was wide eyed. "Sorry I'm late. You know, I think I might nearly have the Sensor working-"
Will interrupted. "Henry," he said, "You're on fire. You do know that don't you? ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Oh, Simon, Simon, Simon," said Jace. "You may not remember, but that's kind of our thing. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
He hadn't spoken a word since they'd left the manor except to snap out directions, telling her which way to turn at a fork in the road, or ordering her to skirt a pothole. Even then she doubted if he would have minded much if she'd fallen into the pothole, except that it would have slowed them down. ~ Cassandra Clare
Cassandra Ravenel quotes by Cassandra Clare
Oh, Tatiana wouldn't even consider staying here for a moment," Gideon said. "She has fled to the Blackthorns', her in-laws, and good riddance. She is not a stupid girl-in fact, she considers her intelligence to be quite superior-but she is a self-important and vain one, and there is no love lost between her and my brother. And he had been awake for days, mind you. Waiting in that great blasted house, locked out of the library, pounding on the door when no answer came from my father ... "
"You feel protective of him," Sophie observed.
"Of course I do; he is my little brother." He moved forward and brushed a hand over Gabriel's tousled brown hair; the other boy moved and made a restless sound but did not wake. ~ Cassandra Clare
