Summary

This quote is from the character Jace Herondale in Cassandra Clare's novel, City of Ashes. It sarcastically implies that Alec, another character, has a strong preference for total eradication of monsters. Jace proposes humorously that if the person is not satisfied with the current description of monsters being "almost extinct," he can have the textbook changed to state they are "not extinct enough" for Alec's liking. The quote adds a touch of wit and highlights the character's dry sense of humor.

This Law -- whether Conscious or Unconscious --predestines nothing and no one. It exists from and in Eternity, truly, for it is ETERNITY itself; and as such, since no act can be co-equal with eternity, it cannot be said to act, for it is ACTION itself...Karma creates nothing, nor does it design. It is man who plans and creates causes, and Karmic law adjusts the effects; which adjustment is not an act, but universal harmony, tending ever to resume its original position.
