1 " So Santa Claus is bogus but Grim Reapers are the genuine article. What does that say about the world? "
― Mindee Arnett , The Nightmare Charade (The Arkwell Academy, #3)
2 " Reapers are the hands of Death. Death might be the judge, but the Reapers are the executioners. They police all Fae." " So kill the bastards." Taraeth glanced at his glass. " MNo one knows who the Reapers are. No one as even seen Death. We can't fight what we don't see or know." " So... you're afraid of some whispers?" " What do you think has been hunting the Fae besides the Kings? The Reapers." Mikkel made a sound at the back of his throat. " Has anyone ever seen one of these Reapers?" " You see one, you die." " Of course you do," Mikkel scoffed. "
3 " Death was the judge. The Reapers were the executioners. Death was the one who decided who the Reapers would visit and exact their justice. "
4 " Conversion can also occur among those who already have the faith. Christians will become real Christians, with less façade and more foundation. Catastrophe will divide them from the world, force them to declare their basic loyalties; it will revive shepherds who shepherd rather than administrate, reverse the proportion of saints and scholars in favor of saints, create more reapers for the harvest, more pillars of fire for the lukewarm; it will make the rich see that real wealth is in the service of the needy; and, above all else, it will make the glory of Christ’s Cross shine out in a love of the brethren for one another as true and loyal sons of God.

5 " And a ride in a hearse tells us we’re all close to that final cruise . . . when the body dies and we move on. It’s just the body, man. It’s just the body. The soul’s already gone. So don’t be afraid of a dead body absent a soul. It’s empty, man. No resident. What you need to worry about is a living body that’s lost its soul. Now that is scary, man.” - Funk N. Wagnalls, owner of the Grim Reapers auto lot, a character in Professor Brown Shoes Teaches the Blues. "

6 " In the summer heat the reapers say, “We have seen her dancing with the autumn leaves, and we saw a drift of snow in her hair. "
