Valentine Morgenstern: Why keep the Verlac boy's visage if you're weaker for it?

Sebastian Morgenstern: I think it rather suits me. Don't you? As does the accent. A bit more... charming than a demonic beast with burnt flesh.

Sebastian Morgenstern (about Edom): I'm afraid it's not a very nice place. The first day I was there, they started burning my skin. Just one layer at a time. They said I was too pretty for their world... Too human. So they made me hideous. But they also taught me how to use my demon blood... how to... draw from its power. See, I may be grotesque in my own skin, but... with it I have power that you could only dream of.

Jace Herondale: Only when the mood strikes.

Sebastian Verlac (to Clary): That empty feeling that eats away at your soul and makes you feel like you want to die, day after day after day, it never stops. Now take that pain and use it.

Sebastian Verlac (to Clary): We are trained so fiercely to believe that... emotions cloud our judgment. But... I believe that emotions give us power. And when we suppress them, we are all the weaker for it.
