1 " Quando Gala se aproximou do campo, seu passo se tornou mais rápido até que ela corria o máximo que podia. Ela sentia o vento em seus cabelos e o calor do sol em seu rosto, e ela voltou o rosto para cima, rindo de pura alegria.
Ela estava vivendo e amava cada minuto disso. "

― Dima Zales , The Sorcery Code (The Sorcery Code, #1)

2 " You’re a man after my own heart,” Hillary says with a smile. “That’s actually a pet peeve of mine, and I think you verbalized it perfectly. The entire human race has this tendency—the inclination to cling to their own group. This obsession with sub-dividing ourselves is responsible for practically every evil in the world. Everyone fails to see that the hatred between our people is just another example in a series of these meaningless feuds. They all start with people who are extremely alike, and then a tiny difference creeps in, and people separate along that difference, after which insanity ensues. Sooner or later, you get that ‘we hate you because you hate us’ deadlock, or worse. "

― Dima Zales , The Thought Pushers (Mind Dimensions, #2)

3 " No matter what it took, he would get to the bottom of this matter—and when he did, the man who betrayed him would pay. "

― Dima Zales , The Sorcery Code (The Sorcery Code, #1)

4 " Augusta created a magical object called the Interpreter Stone, and I came up with a simpler magical language to go along with it. So now, instead of reciting a difficult verbal spell, a sorcerer can use the simpler language to write his spell on cards and feed it to the stone. "

5 " A lie is not a lie if you don’t know you’re lying. "

― Dima Zales , Limbo (The Last Humans, #2)

6 " Schrödinger’s cat paradox is the best example of the confusion. "

― Dima Zales , The Thought Readers (Mind Dimensions, #1)

7 " How many books did you get through?” he asked. She sat up in bed, brushing a few strands of long blond hair off her face. “Three hundred and forty nine.” Blaise blinked. “That’s very precise. Are you sure it wasn’t three hundred and forty eight?” “Yes, I’m sure,” she said seriously, then smiled. “In fact, it was 138,902 pages and 32,453,383 words. "

8 " effects. No one doubts that some kinds of quantum processes are going on in the brain. Since everything is made of subatomic particles, quantum effects happen everywhere. This theory just postulates that brains are leveraging these effects to their benefit. Kind of like plants do. "

9 " Not always a big difference between goons and cops in Russia,” Mitya says. “The likes of Alex can hire cops just as easily as they can hire goons, and it’s worth having a few on the payroll. "

― Dima Zales , Human++ (Human++, #1)

10 " What do you want from me? Am I to be some tool that people use to do magic? Is that my purpose in life?” “No, of course not!” Blaise protested, pushing away an unwelcome tendril of guilt. In a way, that had been exactly what he had originally intended for Gala, but she wasn’t supposed to be a person, with the feelings and emotions of a human being. "

11 " For almost two years, the rain had been sparse, and grain was becoming increasingly difficult to obtain. Augusta did her best to purchase whatever grain was available and send it to her people, but the ungrateful wretches still complained. "

― Dima Zales , The Sorcery Code (The Sorcery Code, #1)

12 " Blaise’s creation, however, was not a myth. She—it—was an artificially created monster with potentially unlimited powers. For all they knew, it could destroy the world and every human being in it. And Blaise was attracted to it. The thought made Augusta so sick she thought she might throw up. "

13 " Your best bet is to enjoy things when life brings you something good, and tough it out as best you can when it brings you the usual shit storm. "

― Dima Zales , The Enlightened (Mind Dimensions, #3)

14 " concur, "

― Dima Zales , The Girl Who Sees (Sasha Urban, #1)

15 " The spell that created you was supposed to make an interconnected structure of nodes—nodes that can learn. Billions and billions of nodes in the Spell Realm, all magically connected together— "

― Dima Zales , The Sorcery Code (The Sorcery Code, #1)

16 " Jealous?” She looked livid now. “Why would I be jealous of this, this . . . thing? It’s nothing more than a few strings of code and life experiences of some dirty peasants. I have a man now—a real man, not some hermit hiding among his books and theories! "

17 " The gargantuan syringe approaches Mom’s neck. Grandpa squeezes her hand and tries not to look at the rapier-sized needle as it breaks his daughter’s skin. "

― Dima Zales , Human++ (Human++, #1)

18 " Fuck. Vagina. Shit. I pointedly think these forbidden words, but my neural scan shows nothing out of the ordinary compared to when I think phonetically similar words, such as shuck, angina, or fit. I don’t see any evidence of my brain being corrupted, though maybe it’s already so damaged that things can’t get any worse. "

― Dima Zales , Oasis (The Last Humans, #1)

19 " The silence was deafening. All around Gala, the fairgoers stood as though frozen in place, staring at the near-accident in morbid fascination. The ale merchant recovered first, jumping toward the shocked child to pull her away from under the barrel. As soon as the girl was not in danger, Gala felt her focus slipping, and the barrel fell, breaking into little bits of wood and splashing ale all over the place. "

20 " The old man looked at her. “In that case, why don’t we just let it be? We have never seen anything like it before—an intelligence that was created, not born, a being from the Spell Realm—” “No.” Augusta shook her head, everything inside her rejecting that idea. “We can’t take that kind of risk. The thing needs to be destroyed now, before it has a chance to destroy us. "
