“Fuck you," said Czernobog. "Fuck you and fuck your mother and fuck the fucking horse you fucking rode in on. You will not even die in battle. No warrior will taste your blood. No one alive will take your life. You will die a soft, poor death. You will die with a kiss on your lips and a lie in your heart.”

“Can I help you?" said the footman. Richard had been told to fuck off and die with more warmth and good humor.”

“This is crazy', said Shadow.Like the rest of your life is sane? Give me a fucking break.”

“In a perfect world, you could fuck people without giving them a piece of your heart. And every glittering kiss and every touch of flesh is another shard of heart you’ll never see again.”

“Obviously, until you write Fuck It, We're All Going To Die, the Newbery Medal is still going to go to people like me.”

“Say 'Nevermore,'" said Shadow."Fuck You," said the Raven.”

“You should know that if we do fucking kill you, the we'll just delete you. You got that? One click and then you're overwriten with random ones and zeros. Undelete is not an option.”
