“Run, thought Victor, and he could see the response in Eli's coiled frame.
Chase me.”
― V. E. Schwab

“Ignorance is only bliss if you want to get caught.”

“He?â€� asked Victor incredulously. He wasn’t in the mood for God. Not this morning. “According to your thesis,â€� he said, “an influx of adrenaline and a desire to survive gave you that talent. Not God. This isn’t divinity, Eli. It’s science and chance.â€�
“Maybe to a point, but when I climbed into that water, I put myself in His hands—�
“No,â€� snapped Victor. “You put yourself in mine.”
― V.E. Schwab, Vicious

“Eli had made a mistake. He wasn't prone to making mistakes, except where Victor Vale was concerned. Victor had always possessed the unnerving ability to get under Eli's skin, interrupt his focus.”
― V.E. Schwab, Vengeful

“We want to prove things, in life, more than we want to disprove them. We want to believe.”
― V.E. Schwab

“If Eli really was a hero, and Victor meant to stop him, did that make him a villain?”
― V.E. Schwab, Vicious

“I’m cold,â€� she said.
“I’m Victor,� he said, and she offered him a small,
exhausted flicker of a smile.”

“So what do you want then?" he asked.
Victor‘s lips curled into that same, dangerous smile. "A friend."
"That‘s all?" he asked, disbelieving.
"A good friend, Mr. Turner, is very hard to find.”
― Victoria Schwab, Vicious

“Victor wasn’t sure how he felt about EOs. Up until he
fetched Sydney from the side of the road, he’d only ever known one EO, himself excluded, and that was Eli. If he’d had to judge based on the two of them, then ExtraOrdinaries were damaged, to say the least. But these words people threw around—humans, monsters, heroes, villains—to Victor it was all just a matter of semantics. Someone could call themselves a
hero and still walk around killing dozens. Someone else could be labeled a villain for trying to stop them. Plenty of humans were monstrous, and plenty of monsters knew how to play at being human. The difference between Victor and Eli, he suspected, wasn’t their opinion on EOs. It was their reaction to
them. Eli seemed intent to slaughter them, but Victor didn’t see why a useful skill should be destroyed, just because of its origin. EOs were weapons, yes, but weapons with minds and wills and bodies, things that could be bent and twisted and broken and used.”
― VE Schwab

“Her eyes narrowed in concentration as her will warred with his, but Eli was loose, and Sydney was lost, and those two things made Victor immovable.”
