Just because you said dragon demons were extinct–"" I said mostly extinct." Alec jabbed a finger toward him." Mostly extinct, " he said, his voice trembling with rage, "is NOTEXTINCT ENOUGH.""I see, " said Jace. "I'll just have them change the entry in the demonology textbook from 'almost extinct' to 'not extinct enough for Alec. He prefers his monsters really, really extinct.' Will that make you happy? . Cassandra Clare
About This Quote

The alternative to the word extinct means the same. If the word extinct is used to describe something that is almost extinct, it is still not extinct enough for Alec. He wants his dragons to be extinct. He wants people to believe that dragons are not real and that they are beasts which can only be seen in myths and fairytales.
