"I know I've been... hopeless for so long I wear it like armour. I don't begrudge you anything you have. Savour it." "I do," said Jean. "Believe me, I do."
Can't have the bow in the air or the stern higher than the mast. Looks silly, then you sink and die.
"That's cheating," said Locke. "That's six times in a row, and you've had the Duke's hand for two of them." "Of course I'm cheating," said Chains. "Game's no fun unless you cheat. When you figure out how I'm cheating, then I'll know you're starting to improve."
"You're all liars," said Locke as their eyes turned expectantly to him. "We're only doing this because nobody else in Camorr is good enough to pull this off, and nobody else is dumb enough to get stuck doing it in the first place." "Bastard!" They shouted in unison forgetting their surroundings for a bare moment.
As he (Locke) left the receiving room, he allowed himself a brief smirk of pleasure; two guards now looked almost as frightened of him as the waiter did. It was strange how readily authority could be conjured from nothing but a bit of jackassery.
"Because, Locke Lamora, some day you're going to dine with barons and counts and dukes. You're going to dine with merchants and admirals and generals and ladies of every sort! And when you do..." Chains put two fingers under Locke's chin and tilted the boy's head up so they were eye to eye. "When you do, those poor idiots won't have any idea that they're really dining with a thief."
Jeg har forelsket meg i deg, chica, og det skremmer vettet av meg, for faen.
"Jeg skal la deg gå. Hvis du blir."

Kanskje burde himmelen med jevne mellomrom ha rykket inn i en annonse i de største avisene: "Viktig melding til alle verdens borgere! Det er ikke et rykte: VERDEN ER HER NÅ!"
"Stories never really end, Meggie," he once told her, "even if the books like to pretend they do. Stories always go on. They don't end on the last page, any more than they begin on the first page."
"Isn't it odd how much fatter a book gets when you've read it several times?" Mo often said [...] "As if something was left between the pages every time you read it. Feelings, thoughts, sounds, smells... and then, when you look at the book again many years later, you find yourself there too, a slightly younger self, slightly different, as if the book had preserved you like a pressed flower... both strange and familiar."
"Vet du hva, Fowl? Du har gjort noe bra her. For den gode sakens egen skyld. Ikke den minste lille fortjeneste." Artemis skar en grimase. "Jeg vet det. Det er forferdelig."
"...Vi må ta beina på nakken." Nr.1 viftet med fingeren. "Men det er bare et uttrykk. Det betyr ikke at vi faktisk må ta beina på nakken. Jeg vet at mennesker bruker det uttrykket også når de ikke har tenkt å ta beina på nakken på ordentlig, så bare for å unngå forvirring..."
[...] For når man først forstår at det er noe man ikke forstår, da er man i grunnen på god vei til å forstå både det ene og det andre.
Butler løftet henne ganske enkelt til side. "Nei du skulle ikke det, men vi har ikke tid til unnskyldninger nå. Bare stå ved døren og se uskyldig ut." "Men jeg..." "Uskyldig! Nå!"
Han kastet et blikk mot forsetet, der Butler satt. "Og han? Vær så snill å si at han også er en venn." Kristornia smilte mens hun kom seg opp i et sete. "Ja, han er også en venn. Den beste som finnes."
Fred og jeg syns vi burdre fått B-er i alt, for det er bedre enn ventet at vi i det hele tatt møter opp på eksamen.
