"By the Angel, you don't know anything about your kind, do you? Do you even really know how vampires are made?"
"Well when a mommy vampire and a daddy vampire love each other very much..."
-Isabelle and Simon; page 8
"No one told you to call your band Salacious Mold, my friend."
"We're Millennium Lint now."
-Clary and Simon; page 35
"You're not so bad. You'll get there. You should have seen Alec do flips at first. I think he kicked himself in the head once."
"Sure, but he was probably eleven. I suppose you've always been amazing at this stuff."
"I was born amazing."
-Jace and Clary; page 38
"Canoodling, I see. I thought you were supposed to be training."
-Isabelle; page 39
"I can't believe he took you to an actual restaurant. I assumed his idea of a date would be making you watch him play World of Warcraft with his nerd friends." -Jace; page 41
"So have you heard from Alec and Magnus lately? Are they having a good time?"
"Sounds like it. Alec keeps sending me annoying photos. Lots of captions like 'Wish you were here, except not really.'"
-Clary and Jace; page 43-44
"I always knew there were vampires, dude. Because, you know how there's people you know who, like, always look the same, even when they're, like, a hundred years old? Like David Bowie? That's because they're vampires." -Eric; page 48
"Oh, good. You're starting to talk about yourself in the third person. That's not a sign of impending megalomania or anything." -Simon; page 70
"Aren't they supposed to be hiring someone else to train me full-time anyway?"
"Yes, and I'm worried that if you get into the habit of making out with your instructors, you'll wind up making out with him, too."
"Don't be sexist. They could find me a female instructor."
"In that case you have my permission to make out with her, as long as I can watch."
"Nice. You're just worried they'll hire a male instructor and he'll be hotter than you."
"Hotter than me?"
"It could happen. You know, theoretically."
"Theoretically the planet could suddenly crack in half, leaving me on one side and you on the other side, forever and tragically parted, but I'm not worried about that, either. Some things are just too unlikely to dwell upon."
-Clary and Jace; page 77
"So, were you, like, sleeping here? On the floor?"
"Got thrown out of my house."
"Mom found your weed stash, huh? That sucks."
"No. No...weed stash. We had a difference of opinion about my lifestyle."
"So, she found out about your two girlfriends?"
-Kyle and Simon; page 89
"Will you be here when I get back?"
"Probably not. I have a dress fitting to get to at three."
"Cool. Get them to make you something in red. It's totally your color."
-Kyle and Simon; page 96
"You know that feeling like you're hungry but you can't bring yourself to eat?"
Simon looked over at the bleached-haired waitress, who was leaning against the diner counter. "Yeah, I know."
-Clary and Simon; page 109
"I can see why you like it here. There's a thin layer of nerd all over everything."
-Jace; page 120
"This from a guy who has all the sex appeal of a penguin. Look, I realize you may be jealous that the good Lord didn't deal you the same chiseled hand he dealt me, but that's not reason to-"
-Jace; page 120
"I was following you."
"Is this the part where you tell me you're secretly in love with me? Vampire mojo strikes again."
"There's no such thing as vampire mojo."
-Jace and Simon; page 122
"Look, do you know what you want to eat, or do you just want me to keep pushing this cart up and down the aisles because it amuses you?"
"That, and I'm not really familiar with what they sell in mundane grocery stores. Maryse usually cooks or we order in food. What's this?"
"That's a mango."
Simon and Jace; page 124
"So what was all that about?"
"I think that she asked if she could touch my mango."
"She said that?"
"Yeah, then she gave me her number. Can we go now?"
"You're not going to call her, are you? Forget I said that. This sort of thing happens to you all the time, doesn't it? Girls just coming up to you?"
"Only when I'm not glamoured."
"Yes, because when you are, girls can't see you, because you're invisible. You're a public menace. You shouldn't be allowed out on your own."
"Jealousy is such an ugly emotion, Lewis."
-Simon and Jace; page 126
Okay, so I've officially named the Mortal Instruments Series the most quotable books ever! I just got this book this morning and I'm already over 100 pages in. I just can't stop! GAH. These are my favorite quotes thus far. :D
