Here’s another extremely long list of all my favourite (and underrated) quotes either said by Adam Parrish or about him from the raven cycle:
The Raven Boys:
- Adam had once told Gansey, rags to riches isn’t a story anyone wants to hear until after its done.
- Success meant nothing to Adam if he hadn’t done it for himself.
- Blue thought she heard music, but when she looked at Adam, she thought perhaps it had just been the sound of his breathing.
- Reality was a bridge breaking beneath Adam.
- The world hummed around Adam, suddenly charged with possibilities, not all of them pleasant.
- Nothing was the truth until he could put his hands on it.
- Adam didn’t like to be accused of lying. He usually had better ways of getting what he wanted.
- Adam laughed out loud and she [Blue] discovered that she was starting to really like this laugh that burst out of him and seemed to surprise him every time.
- “My mother used to say don’t throw away compliments so long as they’re free.” His face was very earnest. “That one wasn’t meant to cost you anything.”
- [about ronan and chainsaw] “You look like a super-villain with your familiar.”
- Adam said rather more ferocious than he’d been a moment before “A friend wouldn’t kill you“
- Adam had been making sacrifices for a very long time, and he knew what the hardest one was. On his terms or not at all.
- The most important thing to Adam Parrish though had always been free will, the ability to be his own master.
