1 " Shakespeare’s enduring tragedy did its part to further the goals of the Mercenaries—glamorizing death, making dying for love seem the most noble act of all, though nothing could be further from the truth. Taking an innocent life—in a misguided attempt to prove love or for any other reason—is a useless waste. "
― Stacey Jay , Juliet Immortal (Juliet Immortal, #1)
2 " But maybe that isn't possible. Maybe the mind of the majority is always the healthy mind, simply by virtue of its numbers. Maybe it's the definition of madness to believe I'm right and everyone else if wrong, to find my thoughts rational and reasonable when almost the entire world finds them damaged and flawed. "
― Stacey Jay , Of Beast and Beauty
3 " It was like watching an angsty hormone-fueled train wreck and firmly cemented my resolve to be at least twenty-five before I considered getting hitched. "
― Stacey Jay , You Are So Undead to Me (Megan Berry, #1)
4 " Fear can force obedience, but it can never transform a heart. "
5 " Real love has little to do with falling. It's a climb up the rocky face of a mountain, hard work, and most people are too selfish or too scared to bother. Very few reach the critical point in their relationship that summons the attention of the light and the dark, that place where they will make a commitment to love no matter what obstacles-or temptations- appear in their path. "
6 " There’s always been sadness hidden at the core of Hitch, but it’s never been big enough to taste. Occasionally, I’d get a whiff of it, salty on the wind, but it never pressed in between us like it does now, threatening to drown us both. "
― Stacey Jay , Dead on the Delta (Annabelle Lee, #1)
7 " I am always alone, pretending to be someone else or lost in a vast emptiness. I miss life. I miss conversation and laughter and shared joy and hurt. I miss dancing and painting. I miss waking up to a day with no evil in it - at least, none that I can see. "
8 " I am not much of a mind to touch "

9 " She is so beautiful. Perfect. Mine.No. Not mine. I am hers. "
― Stacey Jay , Romeo Redeemed (Juliet Immortal, #2)
10 " We'll go down to the stream behind the house with a bottle of wine and none of our clothes and remind each other that--even in the midst of so much goodness--there are delightful ways to be wicked. And we'll swim and laugh and kiss, and the stars will shine, beautiful and bright, but Ariel will always shine brighter.At least for me. "
11 " The myriad of flavors explode on my tongue, shimmy through my mouth, slap my taste buds and call them filthy bastards, and I love it. "
12 " I will show her that loving her is my greatest truth, and the most beautiful thing I have ever known. ” — Gem "
13 " My motto for fashion: If you can’t afford to make an elegant statement, make a ridiculous one. "
14 " I love you. I want to do everything with you. I want to marry you and have kids with you and get old with you. And then I want to die the day before you do, so I never have to live without you. "
15 " Now the thought of forever makes me tired. Frightened. Sad. What is forever worth? When love is so fragile and even one human life so long? "
16 " Is there anything hotter than a cute guy who is also armed and dangerous? I think not. "
― Stacey Jay , Undead Much (Megan Berry, #2)
17 " Despite the love songs humankind churns out like butter, true lovers don't come together every day. As the Mercinaries ply their trade - destroying hope, crushing compassion, inciting war and violence - soul-mated pairs are becoming an endangered species. "
18 " ...real teenage boys aren't like characters in the books you read. They smell funny and are obsessed with video games and say dumb things. They're still learning, just like you. "
19 " Because the part of me that remembers what it was like all those lifetimes ago still cares for you .. loves you. "
20 " Love doesn't want people to stay ignorant and frightened. Love doesn't value obedience over all else. Love doesn't judge and find some lives--or loves--more valuable than others. Love doesn't use people and throw them away. Love stays, and makes you stronger, even when the person you love is gone. "
