"Sweetly the queen went on, "Or perhaps this hostility of yours is pretense. Love does make liars out of your kind.""
"She thought of the satisfaction it would have brought Magnus to say the words out loud, to acknowledge what the truth was, and the fact that he hadn't said them- had let Alec go on lying and pretending- because that was what Alec wanted, and Magnus cared about Alec enough to give him that. Maybe it was true what the Seelie Queen had said, after all. Love made you a liar."
"I know how you think you feel about me. You don't, though. You just like me because I'm safe. There's no risk. And then you never have to try to have a real relationship, because you can use me as an excuse...You don't believe me? Fine. Go ahead. Kiss me right now. Exactly. Despite my staggering good looks, you actually don't like me that way. And if you're blowing off Magnus, it's not because of me. It's because you're too scared to tell anyone who you really love. Love makes us liars."
City of Lost Souls page 272:
""I don't actually like eggs," she confessed. "But you didn't want to tell Jace that, because he seemed so pleased to be making you breakfast. Funny isn't it?" said Sebastian. "The lies good people tell. He'll probably make you eggs every day for the rest of your life now, and you'll choke them down because you can't tell him you don't like them." Clary thought of the Seelie Queen. "Love makes liars of us all?""
