More quotes by Jim Butcher, Dead Beat

"In the action business, when you don't want to say you ran like a mouse, you call it 'taking cover.' It's more heroic."
"Son. Everyone dies alone. That's what it is. It's a door. It's one person wide. When you go through it, you do it alone. But it doesn't mean you've got to be alone before you go through the door. And believe me, you aren't alone on the other side."
"Life is a journey. Time is a river. The door is ajar"
"Life is a journey. Time is a river. The door is ajar"
"We are not going to die."Butters stared up at me, pale, his eyes terrified. "We're not?""No. And do you know why?"He shook his head. "Because Thomas is too pretty to die. And because I'm too stubborn to die."I hauled on the shirt even harder. "And most of all because tomorrow is Oktoberfest, Butters, and polka will never die."
