A p h r o d i t e  —  Greek goddess of love, beauty, pleasure, passion and procreation. Many gods believed that her beauty was such that their rivalry over her would spark a war of the gods. Because of this, Zeus married Aphrodite to Hephaestus – he wasn’t seen as a threat because of his ugliness and deformity. Despite this marriage to Hephaestus, Aphrodite had many lovers. Her lovers include both gods and men – including the god Ares and the mortal Anchises.         Aphrodite loved Adonis. She saw him when he was born and determined then that he should be hers. She assigned Persephone to his care, but Persephone fell in love with Adonis also and would not give him back. Finally, Zeus had to mediate. He judged that Adonis should spend half the year with each.         Aphrodite, Hera, and Athena were the top three contenders for a gold apple marked “For the Fairest.” They asked Zeus to judge the contest, but he refused. Paris, son of the King of Troy, judged the contest instead. Each of the three goddesses promised him something in return; he chose Aphrodite as the winner of the apple. This story of the Judgment of Paris was considered to be the real reason behind the Trojan War, where Aphrodite fought on the side of Paris.

I've never felt about anyone the way I feel about you, Clary. When I met you I I thought I knew everything, but you've shown me that there is so much more to being a Shadowhunter than just killing demons.

I want to solve the problem. Our problem. The final problem. It’s going to start very soon, Sherlock, the fall. But don’t be scared, falling is just like flying, except there’s a more permanent destination.

You're cute when you're worried she muttered. Your eyebrows get all scrunched together. (insp x)

Playing Mike, I accessed feelings I'd never accessed before. I emerged a better actor. I want to give myself credit for that, more than I did at the time. I mean, obviously, there is no perfect person; there's always work to do. But that's what I love about acting. You're never perfect.
