“I am being perfectly fucking civil.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

“I wish you could be kissed, Jane,' he said. 'Because I would beg just one off you. Under all this.' He flailed an arm toward the stars.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“In some parallel universe, there was a Gansey who could tell Blue that he found the ten inches of her bare calves far more tantalizing than the thirteen cubic feet of bare skin Orla sported. But in this universe, that was Adam’s job.
He was in a terrible mood.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“When Ronan thought of Gansey, he thought of moving into Monmouth Manufacturing, of nights spent in companionable insomnia, of a summer searching for a king, of Gansey asking the Gray Man for his life. Brothers.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“Do you not like the fruit bits? That’s the best part.â€� Gansey directed this last statement to Blue, who gave him her mostly empty yogurt cup.”

Maggie Stiefvater
“Gansey lifted her hand gently from his skin, holding it as formally as a dance. He put it against his mouth. Blue froze. Absolutely still. Her heart didn't beat. She didn't blink. She couldn't say don't kiss me. She couldn't even form don't. He just leaned his cheek and the edge of his mouth against her knuckles and then set her hand back.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“With force, Gansey kicked off his shoes. One flew over his miniature Henrietta and the other made it all the way to the side of his desk. It slammed off the old wood and slid to the ground. Under his breath, Gansey said, "Yee haw.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“God, I’m tired.â€�

“So sleep.�

Gansey gave him a look. It was a look that asked how Ronan, of all people, could be so stupid to think that sleep was just a thing that could be so easily acquired.

Ronan said, “So let’s drive to the Barns.�

Gansey gave him another look. It was a look that asked how Ronan, of all people, could be so stupid as to think that Gansey would agree to something so illegal on so little sleep.

Ronan said, “So let’s go get some orange juice.�

Gansey considered. He looked to where his keys sat on the desk beside his mint plant. The clock beside it, a repellently ugly vintage number Gansey had found lying by a bin at the dump, said 3:32.

Gansey said, “Okay.�

They went and got some orange juice.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“She felt bigger than her body. High as the stars. He leaned toward her â€� her heart spun again â€� and pressed his cheek against hers. His lips didn’t touch her skin, but she felt his breath, hot and uneven, on her face. His fingers splayed on either side of her spine. Her lips were so close to his jaw that she felt his hint of stubble at the end of them. It was mint and memories and the past and the future and she felt as if she’d done this before and already she longed to do it again.
Oh, help, she thought. Help, help, help.
He pulled away. He said, “And now we never speak of it again.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“We don't know," Gansey said, around his straw. "Why is the tea so good here?"
"I spit in it. Let me see this thing.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“Arbores loqui latine. The trees speak Latin.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“She wore a dress Ronan thought looked like a lampshade. Whatever sort of lamp it belonged on, Gansey clearly wished he had one.
Ronan wasn't a fan of lamps.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“He was brother to a liar and brother to an angel, son of a dream and son of a dreamer.”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves

Maggie Stiefvater
“Ronan's bedroom door burst open. Hanging on the door frame, Ronan leaned out to peer past Gansey. He was doing that thing where he looked like both the dangerous Ronan he was now and the cheerier Ronan he had been when Gansey first met him.

"Hold on," Gansey told Adam. Then, to Ronan: "Why would he be?"

"No reason. Just no reason." Ronan slammed his door.

Gansey asked Adam, "Sorry. You still have that suit for the party?"

Adam's response was buried in the sound of the second-story door falling open. Noah slouched in. In a wounded tone, he said, "He threw me out the window!"

Ronan's voice sang out from behind his closed door: "You're already dead!”
Maggie Stiefvater, The Dream Thieves
