I'm afraid you made a serious mistake today.Sire?You proved yourself extraordinarily capable, Captain, Albion said. I can hardly let something like that go unremarked.I don't understand, sir, Grimm sa...
I would hit you on the head with a rock and drag you away from this. But it would only shatter the rock.
I would beat you to crap if you didn’t already look like it,
I was doing the new Summer Lady a favor, running down a roguestorm sylph. Got to go all over the place in those tornado-chasergeekmobiles. You should have seen the look on the driver's face when herea...
I was casting everything I had done, everything I believed, everything I had chosen—everything I was—against the will of an ancient being of darkness, terror, and malice, a fundamental power of the wo...
I turned to Grey again. The point is, killing someone is almost never the smart move, long term. Sometimes it’s got to be done if you want to survive—but the more you do it, the more you risk creating...
I tried to take that as a life lesson: never underestimate the little people.
I tried to be what I was meant to be, Father. It was never personal.
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...

I shook my head, bewildered. They say we wizards are subtle. But believe you me, we’ve got nothing, nothing at all, on women.
I rode the dinosaur into the stream of zombies following in the Wardens’ wake and let her go to town. Sue chomped and stomped and smacked zombies fifty feet through the air with swinging blows of her...
I roared at him. Don’t mess with a wizard when he’s wizarding!
I remember very little of my father, but one thing I do remember is him telling me always to be polite. It costs you nothing but breath, and can buy you as much as your life.
I pressed past the outer branches of the lilacs and found a small and relatively open space in the middle. Then I waited.
I parked somewhere where I would probably get a ticket. I planned to ignore it. Anarchists have a much easier time finding parking spots.
I once lost five years listening to a Pink Floyd album.
I moved my feet in a vague shuffle, and remembered somewhere that when you walked, you moved them alternately. This improved our progress considerably.
