Quote by Jim Butcher

“Felicia managed to stagger to her feet, open the front door, and limp haltingly to the white limousine idling on the snowy street outside the house. Murphy went to the window to watch Felicia get into the limo and depart. "Yeah," I said, deadpan. "The little blond woman has two of them.”

“You adopted him," I said when Romeo sat on the coffee table in front of me. "You love him," he said simply. Like that was all he needed to know. "But you'll have to take care of him. Feed him. Give him water. Change the litter box." "Thought maybe you'd want to help." I looked up. Our eyes locked. "What if I say no?" I asked. "What happens to Murphy then?" He shrugged. "He's a cook cat. I'll keep him. He can watch football with me on Sundays." I couldn't help but smile at the image that cast in my head. "You'd really do that?" I whispered. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his knees. "Yes." Then his stoic eyes turned playful and his smile came out. "You wanna watch football with me on Sundays too?" - Rimmel & Romeo”

“Dresden’s not gone,” I said. I touched a hand lightly to my brow. “He’s here.” I touched Will’s bare chest, on the left side. “Here. Without him, without what he’s done over the years, you and I would never have been able to pull this off.” “No,” he agreed. “Probably not. Definitely not.” “There are a lot of people he’s taught. Trained. Defended. And he’s been an example. No single one of us can ever be what he was. But together, maybe we can.”

“Vijana wa Tume walipofika kambini chini ya ulinzi mkali wakiwa na Kahima, polisi wengi walionekana kuwapigia saluti lakini wakubwa wao wakawakataza na kuwambia wao walikuwa watu wa kawaida kama wao. Walisindikizwa na lundo la polisi mpaka ndani ya jumba la utawala Murphy alimokuwa ameuhifadhi mwili wa Radia. Walipofika walishtuka, na hata kuwashangaza polisi. Mwili wa Radia haukuwepo! Walitafuta kila sehemu, na kuwambia polisi wawasaidie kutafuta, lakini Radia alishapotea. Murphy alipata wazo na kutoka nje, kwa kukimbia, polisi wengi wakimfuata; mpaka katika helikopta ya DEA ambapo alifungua mlango na kuingia ndani. Ndani ya helikopta hakukuwa na mtu!”

“Viele behaupten ja gerne, dass Menschen, die tierlieb sind, keine schlechten Menschen sein können. Vermutlich bilden sie sich ein, dass Tiere einen siebten Sinn für das angeborene Böse haben oder einen ähnlichen Blödsinn. Ich hätte ihre Theorie im Handumdrehen widerlegen können, aber leider sieht oder hört mich ja keiner von ihnen. Ihr müsst nämlich wissen, Tiere lieben mich.”

“Ja, es gibt noch andere wie mich. Nun ja, vielleicht nicht genau so wie mich – es gibt nur einen Murphy -, aber ihr versteht schon, was ich meine. Von vielen habt ihr sicher schon gehört: Aller guten Dinge sind drei. Alter geht vor Schönheit. Blut ist dicker als Wasser. Morgenstund hat Gold im Mund – das hat sie wirklich. Alle Zähne sind aus reinem Gold und selbst die Zunge ist goldfarben. Es sieht unheimlich aus.”

“Ich merke, dass meine Gedanken abgeschweift sind, als ich nach einer Weile die Präsenz eines anderen Unsterblichen spüre, der in einiger Entfernung durch die Gegend schlendert. Hochgeschreckt starre ich erst auf die Uhr, fluche, weil es mittlerweile schon nach elf ist, und drehe mich dann um. Es ist das Schleimmonster. Natürlich gibt es keine Sprichwörter über Schleimmonster! Idioten!”
