If I feel the urge to burst into flames, I'll let you know," Simon was getting fed up. "Look, did you actually ask me to come all the way uptown just so you could stare at me like I'm something in a petrie dish? Next time I'll send you a photo." "And...
Toby Wright: [looking at George Washington monument] See that? Pull that out, America deflates. Malcolm Tucker: Yeah, it's very easy to mock. The closest you'll ever get to one of those is buying a fucking Toblerone. I'll wait in the car. Simon Foste...
My favourite finds are often antique pieces with a history.

Is there some particular reason that you're here?" ... "Not this again." "Not what again?" said Clary. "Every time I annoy him, he retreats into his No Mundanes Allowed tree house." Simon pointed at Jace.

She shook her head. She was so pale under the diffuse lamp-light that she looked almost transparent, as if Simon could have looked right through her. The way, he supposed, he always had.
Magnus snapped his fingers again, menacingly. "Get up." "Or you'll be the next one to go up in smoke," said Simon with relish. "There's no need to clarify my finger snap. The implication was clear in the snap itself.
No. That's Clary; shes's my best friend." Simon pocketed his phone. "And she has a boyfriend. Like, really, really, really has a boyfriend. The nuclear bomb of boyfriends. Trust me on this one.

Come on guys, you cant fight like this forever" "Actually," Simon said, raising his hand,"I can". Jace made a weird noise and I realized he was trying not to laugh-which by the way, wasn't working.
[Simon and Targo have just learned that McClane killed two of their henchmen at the aqueduct] Mathias Targo: I told you not to toy with him! Simon: Thank you, that's very helpful.
Simon Bishop: Thank you, Melvin. You... overwhelm me. [pauses] Simon Bishop: I love you. Melvin Udall: I tell you, buddy... I'd be the luckiest guy alive if that did it for me.
Dr. Simon Tam: In all that time on the ship... I've always regretted... not being with you. Kaylee Frye: With me? You mean to say... as in sex? Dr. Simon Tam: I mean to say. Kaylee Frye: To Hell with this. I'm gonna live!
River Tam: You take care of me, Simon. You've always taken care of me. My turn. [she dives through the closing doors, grabs the medikit, and throws it to Simon just before the doors close]
Dr. Simon Tam: [deciding to leave the ship] River, do you want to stay with them? River Tam: It isn't safe. Dr. Simon Tam: No. I fear it isn't safe any more. [walks away] River Tam: [quietly] For them.
