It has been many years since I have eaten freely at my choice, fair one, and a plate of strawberries is all that I desire." - Mark Blackthorn ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
I read once that explaining a joke is like dissecting a frog," Mark said. "You find out how it works, but the frog dies in the process. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Valentine had wanted to crush the world as Magnus knew it. But this woman had helped crush him instead, and now she was looking at her daughter as if she would make another world, shining and brand new, just for Clary, so Clary would never be touched by any of the darkness of the past. Magnus knew what it was to want to forget as badly as Jocelyn did, knew the passionate urge to protect that came with love.

Perhaps none of the children of the new generation- not this small stubborn red headed scrap, or half-faerie Helen and Mark Blackthorn at the Los Angeles Institute, or even Maryse Lightwood's children growing up in New York far from the Glass City- would ever have to learn the full truth about the ugliness of the past. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
I am no faerie. I am Mark Blackthorn of the Los Angeles Institute. It doesn't matter what they say or what they do to me. I still remember who I am. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
He could sleep in the ruins of cities lost for centuries. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
I am saying the choices we make in captivity are not always the choices we make in freedom. And thus we question them. We cannot help it. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
What's up?" Emma called. "We're almost ready."
"I just wanted to tell you to come down," Mark said. "We are all eager to hear your story, and I've made my famous doughnut sandwiches."
"I'm not sure 'Tavvy likes them' is exactly what most people mean when they say 'famous,' " Emma said. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
When he faced her again, he had never looked to her so much like one of the Fair Folk. His eyes were full of feral amusement, a carelessness that spoke of a world where there was no human Law. He seemed to bring the wildness of Faerie into the room with him: a cold, sweet magic that was nevertheless a bitter at the roots.
The storm calls you as it calls me, does it not?
He held out a hand to her, half-beckoning, half-offering.
"Why lie?" he said. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
How is Ty? There is nothing wrong with Ty, but he is different, and the Clave hates all that is different. They will try to punish him, for being who he is. They would punish a star for burning. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
I have been in the land of Faerie for years and it is a place where mortal blood is turned to fire. It is a place of beauty and terror beyond what can be imagined here. I have ridden with the Wild Hunt. I have carved a clear path of freedom among the stars and outrun the wind. And no I am asked to walk upon the earth again. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
It tastes of the most bitter poison . . I've never tasted something so disgusting." - Mark Blackthorn ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Love and hate had their own secret languages, and Mark and Kieran were speaking in them now. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Why are you wearing a T-shirt under your other T-shirt?" Livvy asked.
"In case one of them is stolen," Marked said, as it were entirely normal. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Huh," said Kit, thinking of the Cold Peace. "Are you a prisoner?"
"No," said the faerie. "I'm Mark's lover."
Oh, Kit thought. The person he went into Faerie to save. He tried to stifle a look of amusement at the way faeries talked. Intellectually, he knew the word "lover" was part of traditional speech, but he couldn't help it: He was from Los Angeles, and as far as he was concerned, Kieran had just said, Hello, I have sex with Mark Blackthorn. What about you? ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
We're late," she said, "The show is supposed to start in ten minutes. If some people hadn't decided that 'semiformal' meant 'seminaked'-"
"Why are you calling me 'some people'?" Mark inquired. "I am only one person. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
[Julian]"Remember, Mark is in charge."
"Does he know that?" said Livvy.
Julian sought Mark in the crowd on the steps. He was standing with his hands behind his back, exchanging a mistrustful look with a carved stone gnome. "Your pretense does not fool me, gnome," he muttered. "My eye will be upon you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
There was beauty in the idea of freedom, but it was an illusion. Every human heart was chained by love. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
To make a true choice, we must have true knowledge. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
A thousand dark nights spent riding with no home to arrive at. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
I don't know," Mark said, looking down at his own long pale fingers tangled in the little boy's brown curls. "He just – Julian left, and Tavvy fell asleep on my lap."
He sounded amazed, wondering.
"Of course he did," Cristina said. "He's your brother. He trusts you."
"Nobody trusts a Hunter," Mark said. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Kieran's hands came up to cup Mark's face. His touch was gentle. "I am not doing it for you," he said. "This will be what I do for Emma and the others. Then that debt will be paid. You and I, our debts are paid already." He leaned forward and brushed his lips against Mark's. Mark wanted to chase the kiss, the warmth of it, the familiarity. He felt Kieran's hand come down to splay itself over his chest-over the elf-bolt that hung there, below his collarbone. "We will be done with each other".

"No," Mark whispered. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Mark, looking beatific, took the dispenser of maple syrup off the table and upended it over his strawberries. He picked one up and put it in his mouth, stem and all. Julian stared at him.
"What?" Mark said. "This is a perfectly normal thing to eat."
"Sure it is," said Julian. "If you're a hummingbird. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
The stars will go out before I forget you, Mark Blackthorn. - Kieran of the Hunt ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
But what do you have to be stressed about, little brother?" Mark said. "You weren't carried away by the faeries. You've spent your life here. Not that the life of a Shadowhunter isn't stressful, but why are you the one with the bloody hands? ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
He bumped into a pay phone and said, 'Excuse me, miss,' on our way in," said Julian.
"It's polite to apologize," said Mark with the same small voice.
"Not to inanimate objects. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Are you going to cut my throat?" Mark asked.
I'm going to cur your hair. Hold still," Christina said.
"As my lady requests. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Mark spoke like a poem and walked like a dance. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
The Folk love nothing more than mortal beauty. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Might I make free with your lettuce, my lady? ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
It was an odd bit of doggerel. First the flame and then the flood, in the end it's Blackthorn blood. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
That is not love. That is debt. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
When a decision like that is made by a government, it emboldens those who are already prejudiced to speak their deepest thoughts of hate. They assume they are simply brave enough to say what everyone really thinks. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Your pretense does not fool me, gnome. My eye will be upon you. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
You don't want him," she said to the pink-haired girl. "He has syphilis."
The girls stared. "Syphilis?"
"Five percent of people in America have it," said Ty helpfully.
"I do not have syphilis," Mark said angrily. "There are no sexually transmitted diseases in Faerieland!"
"Sorry," Jules said. "You know how syphilis is. Attacks the brain. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
Keep this and perhaps remember me."
Kieran's hands tightened on the arrowhead, his knuckles whitening. "The stars will go out before I forget you, Mark Blackthorn. ~ Cassandra Clare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Cassandra Clare
You're right, Jen, of course," she capitulated. "I'm sorry. You're going through hell, and I'm pontificating instead of being compassionate," Lynne admitted.
"Pontificating? Interesting choice of words for a nonbeliever," Jennifer chuckled. ~ Mark M. Bello
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark M. Bello
Damn the subjunctive. It brings all our writers to shame. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
It is the mark of a supreme soul not know how to inflict pain on others. ~ Amit Kalantri
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Amit Kalantri
I'm probably the toughest (expletive) here. Ain't no
question about that with me. I'm the toughest guy
here ... I'm clean. I mean, I ain't got no marks on
me. I don't know nobody else who can say that
who came out of any sport. I ain't got no marks on
me, so I've got to be the baddest dude I know of. ~ Deacon Jones
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Deacon Jones
Ever since 9/11, I found myself interested in chronicling the war and the war on terror and the way that this giant machinery was affecting individuals. ~ Mark Boal
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Boal
I learned there that the key was first to prioritize all the individual stressors and then act. I break it all down into the little things I can manage. The stressors that I can't affect, I don't worry about. The ones I can affect, I simply deal with one at a time. ~ Mark Owen
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Owen
If you create great content, huzzah. But if it doesn't move anywhere, you're not succeeding. ~ Mark Schaefer
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Schaefer
Then the old man got to cussing, and cussed everything and everybody he could think of, and then cussed them all over again to make sure he hadn't skipped any, and after that he polished off with a kind of a general cuss all round, including a considerable parcel of people which he didn't know the names of, and so called them what's-his-name, when he got to them, and went right along with his cussing. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
I think that more flow of information, the ability to stay connected to more people makes people more effective as people. And I mean, that's true socially. It makes you have more fun, right. It feels better to be more connected to all these people. You have a richer life. ~ Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
I have thought many times since that if poets when they get discouraged would blow their brains out, they could write very much better when they got well. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
I had lunch with my brothers," Mark said, his face serious. "While you were still asleep. They told me. About Corey and that stupid set-up you agreed to where you'd pretend not to be my wife ... "
"I never agreed to pretend not to be your wife," Dylan said.
Mark's face grew serious then. "That's what it amounted to in the end though, didn't it? You pulled away from me in exchange for me getting ... what?"
"Your career back," Dylan said. "Your life."
"Dylan, you're my life. You. ~ Nia Forrester
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Nia Forrester
Wherever you have seen God pass, mark that spot, and go and sit in that window again. ~ Henry Ward Beecher
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Henry Ward Beecher
What a lumbering poor vehicle prose is for the conveying of a great thought! ... Prose wanders around with a lantern & laboriously schedules & verifies the details & particulars of a valley & its frame of crags & peaks, then Poetry comes, & lays bare the whole landscape with a single splendid flash. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
And she speculated that the city would be cold, completely of itself, unconscious, that its every move would be transcendent, and that each of its hundred million flashing scenes would strike a moral lesson.
Such a city would extend vision, intensify pity, telescope emotion, and float the heart the way the sea is gently buoyant with great ships. To do this it would have to be a cold instrument. And, despite its beauty, it would have to be cruel. ~ Mark Helprin
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Helprin
Majority Patriotism is the customary Patriotism. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
Hope is the light you follow; faith is believing there is actually a light
they are the refusal to give up when you have no reason to go on.
Snake to Ara (Mark of Betrayal, Book 4 dark Secrets) ~ A.M. Hudson
Mark Blackthorn quotes by A.M. Hudson
The traits that mark an autotelic personality are most clearly revealed by people who seem to enjoy situations that ordinary persons would find unbearable. Lost ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
I always think a day when you never get out of your pajamas is a win. ~ Mark Hamill
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Hamill
Fewer things leave a deeper mark on the reader than the first book that finds its way into his heart. ~ Carlos Ruiz Zafon
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Carlos Ruiz Zafon
In some respects, inside information is a form of financial steroid. It is unfair: it is offensive; it is unlawful; and it puts a black mark on the entire enterprise. ~ Preet Bharara
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Preet Bharara
And it came to Daisy out of the blue. Her mother was a human being. How rarely she saw it. ~ Mark Haddon
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Haddon
I don't wanna hear nobody complain that they're getting paid all this money and people won't leave them alone. It's part of it. ~ Mark Wahlberg
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Wahlberg
History has tried hard to teach us that we can't have good government under politicians. Now, to go and stick one at the very head of the government couldn't be wise. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
Show me the artist anywhere who's had an utterly stable mental life, and I'll buy you hot dinners for the rest of your life. ~ Mark Haddon
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Haddon
Doing what we were meant to do creates fun, excitement and contentment in our lives, and invariably, in the lives of the people around us. When you're excited about something it's contagious. ~ Mark Victor Hansen
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Victor Hansen
What our closest friends do for us is to teach us true selflessness. We learn that while it might be safer for them if we keep them out, true friendship means letting them in. We cannot decide for them what they are willing to suffer with us and for us. While we certainly don't want to see our friends suffer, friendship isn't about protecting each other from pain so much as it is about helping each other to become what God has called us to be. ~ Mark Mossa
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Mossa
A 2004 article in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition referred to numerous studies suggesting that a low-carbohydrate intake and the resulting mild ketosis may offer many benefits, including reduction of body fat, minimized damage from insulin resistance and free radicals (caused by metabolizing a high-carbohydrate diet), and a reduction of LDL cholesterol. ~ Mark Sisson
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Sisson
In a way, both the U.S. media and those wacky rioters in the Afghan-Pakistani hinterlands are very similar, two highly parochial and monumentally self-absorbed tribes living in isolation from the rest of the world and prone to fanatical irrational indestructible beliefs - not least the notion that you can flush a 950-page book down one of Al Gore's eco-crazed federally mandated low-flush toilets, a claim no editorial bigfoot thought to test for himself in Newsweek's executive washroom. ~ Mark Steyn
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Steyn
Creating opportunities means looking where others are not. ~ Mark Cuban
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Cuban
Write what you love. Love will hold you through the hard times and hold the world during the good times. ~ Mark Z. Danielewski
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Z. Danielewski
I look at Google and think they have a strong academic culture. Elegant solutions to complex problems. ~ Mark Zuckerberg
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Zuckerberg
Send it and end it, kid."
Court would fire, sending a boat-tail round across fields and lakes, over cabins and farms, and, more often than not, much more often than not, he'd hit his target, thereby ending the "threat."
He'd send it, and he'd end it.
He thought back to those days, the fundamentals of the craft, and he fought again to remain calm. He forced himself not to feel any emotion at all. Any increase in heart rate, fluctuation in breathing, new sweating on his skin that could cause reflex muscle contractions. Anything different with his body at the moment he fired would affect his shot. It could send the round out of the barrel one hundredth of an inch from where he wanted the muzzle positioned for firing, but translated out across 1.81 miles, the round would end up several feet off target. ~ Mark Greaney
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Greaney
I hope and hoping feeds my pain
I weep and weeping feeds my failing heart
I laugh but the laughter does not pass within
I burn but the burning makes no mark outside ~ Niccolo Machiavelli
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Niccolo Machiavelli
How do people get to this clandestine Archipelago? Hour by hour planes fly there, ships steer their course there, and trains thunder off to it--but all with nary a mark on them to tell of their destination. And at ticket windows or at travel bureaus for Soviet or foreign tourists the employees would be astounded if you were to ask for a ticket to go there. They know nothing and they've never heard of the Archipelago as a whole or any one of its innumerable islands.

Those who go to the Archipelago to administer it get there via the training schools of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Those who go there to be guards are conscripted via the military conscription centers.

And those who, like you and me, dear reader, go there to die, must get there solely and compulsorily via arrest.

Arrest! Need it be said that it is a breaking point in your life, a bolt of lightning which has scored a direct hit on you? That it is an unassimilable spiritual earthquake not every person can cope with, as a result of which people often slip into insanity?

The Universe has as many different centers as there are living beings in it. Each of us is a center of the Universe, and that Universe is shattered when they hiss at you: "You are under arrest."

If you are arrested, can anything else remain unshattered by this cataclysm?

But the darkened mind is incapable of embracing these dis­placements in our universe, and both the mo ~ Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
Modern English is the Wal-Mart of languages: convenient, huge, hard to
avoid, superficially friendly, and devouring all rivals in its eagerness
to expand. ~ Mark Abley
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Abley
In the end it seems we're just toys, easy to break and hard to mend. ~ Mark Lawrence
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Lawrence
I find women much more interesting than dudes. ~ Mark Waters
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Waters
You shall mark
Many a duteous and knee-crooking knave
That, doting on his own obsequious bondage,
Wears out his time, much like his master's ass,
For nought but provender; and when he's old, cashier'd:
Whip me such honest knaves. ~ William Shakespeare
Mark Blackthorn quotes by William Shakespeare
Photojournalism has frequently been lambasted for being the product of circumstance. In fact rarely are any of these images considered in terms of their composition and semantic intent. They are merely news, a happy intersection of event and opportunity. It hardly helps that photographs in general also take only a fraction of a second to acquire.

It is incredible how so many people can constantly misread speed to mean ease. This is certainly most common where photography is concerned. However simply because anyone can buy a camera, shutter away, and then with a slightly prejudiced eye justify the product does not validate the achievement. Shooting a target with a rifle is accomplished with similar speed and yet because the results are so objective no one suggests that marksmanship is easy. ~ Mark Z. Danielewski
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Z. Danielewski
Mosques are plenty, churches are plenty, graveyards are plenty, but morals and whiskey are scarce. The Koran does not permit Mohammedans to drink. Their natural instincts do not permit them to be moral. They say the Sultan has eight hundred wives. This almost amounts to bigamy. It makes our cheeks burn with shame to see such a thing permitted here in Turkey. We do not mind it so much in Salt Lake, however. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
You can't not be changed by the experience of seeing extreme poverty. You start to want to think about ways in which you can make the world better. ~ Mark Takano
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Takano
It's ridiculous that people call me a sex symbol. I don't feel like that at all. My daughter would get a kick out of it - she'd find it very funny. I'll take it though. I'm very humble. But it's certainly not the way I feel. ~ Mark Wahlberg
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Wahlberg
Eight grown Americans out of ten dread the coming of the Fourth, with its pandemonium and its perils, and they rejoice when it is gone-if still alive. ~ Mark Twain
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mark Twain
Some individuals have developed such strong internal standards that they no longer need the opinion of others to judge whether they have performed a task well or not. The ability to give objective feedback to oneself is in fact the mark of the expert. ~ Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
Mark Blackthorn quotes by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi
