A connection between two people existed only because of their shared belief in it as real. There was no such thing as a connection with only one end. There was no such thing as love, alone.

Lich Gotthold and Galateva
"Stay still. Don't try to hold me tight! I'm only dust in the wind. I'm only a smoke of the extinct candle. A whisper of your dreams. Rustle in your mind. You can't keep me nearby. You can't catch me... because I wasn't supposed to exist in your lifetime."

“Touch. It is touch that is the deadliest enemy of chastity, loyalty, monogamy, gentility with its codes and conventions and restraints. By touch we are betrayed and betray others … an accidental brushing of shoulders or touching of hands … hands laid on shoulders in a gesture of comfort that lies like a thief, that takes, not gives, that wants, not offers, that awakes, not pacifies. When one flesh is waiting, there is electricity in the merest contact.”
― Wallace Stegner, Angle of Repose

Progression of a trilogy
Book 1: “so this is the armoury?” “No, this is a pet store” “if this was a pet store I would’ve spent all your money on kittens by now”
Book 2: “We’re children. We weren’t meant to be soldiers” […] (sobbing) “We’re just children. We’re just children”
Book 3: “you saved her life” “and it meant condemning an innocent child. I may as well have shot her myself. I killed her” […] “I like you sober” (laughs) “Well, good. At least someone does”

Jocelyn: Come on, aren’t you a little old to have an imaginary friend?
Clary: I guess…
Jocelyn: So maybe make some real friends, ones who don’t have scaly skin and forked tongues.
Clary, stopping dead in her tracks: I never told you what it looked like.
