Alec Lightwood: Why do you hate him so much?

Lorenzo Rey: It's simple. All my life, I've had to sit by and watch while the world lavished praise on Magnus Bane. The Prodigy. The High Warlock who could do no wrong.

Alec Lightwood: Green isn't becoming on you, Lorenzo.

Lorenzo Rey: You have no idea how hard I've had to work for everything that I have. That man was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. His celebrity is not based on talent. It's nepotism.

Alec Lightwood: Lorenzo, you're right about one thing. Magnus is beloved. And when word gets out that you wouldn't help him, purely out of jealously... how do you think the other warlocks are gonna feel?

Lorenzo Rey: I guess we'll find out, won't we?
