Mind Of A Hermit

Welcome Visitors! This is a sideblog, mostly* dedicated to quotes from the various books/movies/TV shows that I read/watch. I do my best to make sure the quotes are as accurate as possible - but I'm only human so mistakes will be made. There is absolutely no rhyme or reason as to why I choose the quotes - I just like 'em! Feel free to let me know if you want more from certain shows/books or if there is anything out there you think I need to add to my collection (if I haven't seen or read anything I will try to check it out) - but I give no guarantees on whether it shows up or not. *I say mostly as that is what I plan to focus on, but inevitably there will be some other not-necessarily-quote-related thing I feel like sharing here. **Quote in the tagline is from Sherrilyn Kenyon's Chronicles of Nick series. ***Picture in background is a page from Cassandra Clare's Infernal Devices Trilogy.

After all, I don’t have to outrun the zombies. I just have to outrun you.

When you open your mind to the impossible, sometimes you find the truth.

Nick knew for himself that words were far more damaging than any weapon. The body healed and the scars faded, but the internal damage was eternal. It echoed anytime you let your defences fall.

'There will be many an event in your life that no amount of time will ever take the sting out of it. Days when you know your heart has been brutally ripped out and thoroughly stomped. But every one of those events is a defining moment in our lives that, for better or worse, changes us forever and carves a scar on our souls. They will leave us angry, bitter, shell-shocked and bleeding – that is a guarantee from a cold, brutal universe that hates us.’

Nick really didn’t want to hear this. But there was no stopping Caleb when he was on a roll.

‘We don’t have a choice in how or when our bad days will blindside us. But what we do chose is how we allow them to leave us once they’re gone. You can use those moments as a catalyst to spur you on to greater things or you can let it be the event that breaks you and leaves you shattered and forever lost in darkness. That, my friend, is the curse of free will. You can blame it all on fate and the universe, but in the end you alone decide if you’re going to lie down and let hell take you under, or if you’re going to stand strong in defiance of it all with your middle finger raised.’

Caleb stopped on the sidewalk to pierce him with a fiery gaze.

‘If you muster that courage to stand under fire and not go down, you will amass an inner strength that no one can touch. You won’t be another faceless, nameless, forgotten human in a long historical line of the defeated. You will be a steeled warrior, and a force to be reckoned with. And beneath the pain that lingers, you will have the comfort of knowing that you are the strongest of all. That when others caved and broke, you kept fighting even against hopeless odds.’

Derek:Can you get me out of here before I drown! Stiles:You're worried about drowning? Did you notice the thing out there with multiple rows of razor sharp teeth? Derek:Did you notice that I'm paralysed from the neck down in eight feet of water!

'She touched my throat with her teeth.’ ‘Well,’ Drew said quietly, ‘that can be extremely hot, or extremely bad if the trust isn’t there first.’ ‘I should’ve been able to handle it.’ ‘Bullshit.’ Drew snorted. ‘If Hawke went for my throat, I’d freeze the fucking hell where I was and start thinking of ways to convince him that whatever he thought I did, I didn’t do.’ Felix knew Drew, knew how the other man used humor to get through to people, but he couldn’t laugh this time. ‘Hawke isn’t your lover.’ ‘That’s true. He’s not really my type. I mean, with that hair and everything.’

Luke:Forgive me mt paternal panic. I tend to get a little nervous when you're not in my immediate line of sight these days. Clary:Oh yeah? How long do you think that's going to go on for? Luke:Not long. Five, maybe six years. Clary:Luke! Luke:I plan to let you start dating when you're thirty, if that helps.

Coulson:We're blown. Agent May:Why? Coulson:No idea. I think Talbot's still mad we kidnapped him that time.

"The world was like a radio station that was tuned in to all the music in the world – except that you couldn’t really hear any of the songs anymore because all the songs were playing full blast – and all of them shouting at you at the same time."

I got a shotgun and a backhoe and no one looks under a septic tank for a dead body.

Stiles:So you're asking me to tell you what I wouldn't not tell you? Agent McCall:First, I have no idea what you just said. Second, how about you just help me help you. Stiles:Well I don't know how to help you help me tell you something if I don't know it.

Walter:I have used this technique to extract information from a corpse once. You can do that if they haven't been dead for longer than six hours. Peter:Right, cause after six hours, that's when they're really dead.

Say it, and I will kill you, your children, and your grandchildren.
