Clary Fairchild: Jonathan, if you're looking for pity, you're wasting your breath.

Jonathan Morgenstern: I'm not interested in pity. Just understanding. I can't deny the things I've done. But you need to know that's behind me now. I can change. I want to change. Because... whatever good exists inside of you, at least some of that has got to be inside of me too. Somewhere. I intend to prove that to you.
