Citando a... (5): Ángel mecánico

Hola! Al habla una chica contenta porque por fin ha salido el Sol. Hoy os traigo una entrada de Citando a..., y el libro elegido hoy es Ángel mecánico, mi mejor lectura de está última semana. Ya estoy leyendo Princesa mecánica y solo decirps que me están encantando, aparte de tenerme totalmente enganchada a sus páginas y posiblemente en unos días haga una reseña conjunta de toda la trilogía.

Además quiero adelantaros, que estoy planeando una gran sorpresa para estos próximos días, si queréis saber cual es... bien, tendréis que esperar hasta mañana (Soy mala, lo sé)

Pues no me enrollo más, y aquí os dejo las citas que me enamoraron, espero que os gusten tanto como a mí:

There was not one at all for her. No one in the world who cared whether she lived or died. Sometimes the horror of that thought threatened to overwhelm her and plunge her down into a bottomless darkness from which there would be no return. If no one in the entire world cared about you, did you really exist at all?

"One must be always be careful with books" said Tessa "and what is inside them, for words have the power to change us"

"There's plenty of sense in nosense sometimes, if you wish to look for it" 

"Inanimate objects are harmless indeed, Mr. Mortmain. But one cannot always say the same of men who use them" 

“You know," Gabriel said, "there was a time I thought we could be friends, Will."
"There was a time I thought I was a ferret," Will said, "but that turned out to be the opium haze. Did you know it had that effect? Because I didn't.”

“It's all right to love someone who doesn't love you back, as long as they're worth you loving them. As long as they deserve it.”

 “That was enterprising," Will sounded nearly impressed. 
Nate smiled. Tess shot him a furious look. "Don't look pleased with yourself. When Will says 'enterprising' he means 'morally deficient.'"
"No, I mean enterprising," said Will. "When I mean morally deficient, I say, 'Now, that's something I would have done'.

 “So you don't ever get angry at him?"
Jem laughed out loud. "I would hardly say that. Sometimes I want to strangle him."
"How on earth do you prevent yourself?"
"I go to my favorite place in London," said Jem, "and I stand and look at the water, and I think about the continuity of life, and how the river rolls on, oblivious of the petty upsets in our lives."
Tessa was fascinated. "Does that work?"
"Not really, but after that I think about how I could kill him while he slept if I really wanted to, and then I feel better.”

"Sometimes" Jem said, "our lives can change so fast that the change outpaces our minds and hearts"

“Must you go? I was rather hoping you'd stay and be a ministering angel, but if you must go, you must." 
"I'll stay," Will said a bit crossly, and threw himself down in the armchair Tessa had just vacated. "I can minister angelically."
"None too convincingly. And you're not as pretty to look at as Tessa is," Jem said, closing his eyes as he leaned back against the pillow.
"How rude. Many who have gazed upon me have compared the experience to gazing at the radiance of the sun." 
Jem still had his eyes closed. "If they mean it gives you a headache, they aren't wrong.”

It is a great thing to love as it is to be loved. Love is not something that can be wasted.

 “Remember when you tried to convince me to feed a poultry pie to the mallards in the park to see if you could breed a race of cannibal ducks?"
"They ate it too," Will reminisced. "Bloodthirsty little beasts. Never trust a duck.”
