“The world changes, we do not, therein lies the irony that kills us.”
“Do you see the irony at all, Tristan?’ I stare at him and shake my head. He seems determined not to speak again until I do. ‘What irony?’ I ask eventually, the words tumbling out in a hurried heap. ‘That I am to be shot as a coward while you get to live as one.”

"You're raining on my parade.""It's a pretty wet parade already, if you hadn't noticed." Jace glanced around.”
