"No. Absolutely not.â€ â€œSimon,â€ she said. â€œItâ€™s a perfectly fine plan.â€ â€œThe plan where you follow Jace and Sebastian off to some unknown dimensional pocket and we use these rings to communicate so those of us over here in the regular dimension of Earth can track you down? That plan?â€ â€œYes.â€ â€œNo,â€ he said. â€œNo, it isnâ€™t.â€ Clary sat back. â€œYou donâ€™t just get to say no.â€ â€œThis plan involves me! I get to say no! No.â€ â€œSimonâ€”â€ Simon patted the seat beside him as if someone were sitting there. â€œLet me introduce you to my good friend No."

My mother always did it." Then she went and asked her mother, who said, "I don't know. My mother always did it." The she went and asked her grandmother, who said, "The oven wasn't big enough."”

“There's nothing that I love to do more than act and I feel really lucky to be in the position that I'm in, being able to do it as my job! If I ever do anything other than act, it will be in show business.”
“Whatever you can handle, it's up to you. Pick something where you are going to do it to failure--in other words, where you can hardly do it. That's the key. So many people will just take five pound weights and do something 10 times. What are they getting out of it? Nothing! Say you are going to build up your bank account. If you put in a penny a day, it's going take a long while. It's the same with exercise--the more you put into it the more you take out.”
“In the valley of suffering, despair and bitterness are brewed. But there also character is made. The valley of suffering is the vale of soul-making.”
