Magnus Bane: You want to know what it's like when your parents are good churchgoing folk and you happen to be born with the devil's mark? (points to his eyes) When your father flinches at the sight of you and your mother hangs herself in the barn, driven mad by what she's done? When I was ten, my father tried to drown me in the creek. I lashed out at him with everything I had... burned him where he stood. I went to the fathers of the church eventually, for sanctuary. They hid me. They say that pity's a bitter thing, but it's better than hate. When I found out what I was really, only half a human being, I hated myself. Anything's better than that. Alec Lightwood: It wasn't your fault. You can't help how you're born.
