“I read somewhere that spiders can spin silk strong enough to hold the weight of a thousand trucks. I tried to imagine those lines of silver, thinner than air, stronger than steel. Sometimes I think that a hundred webs, invisible gossamers, connect Gracie and me. They coat our bodies, tie our limbs together, link our hearts. They can stretch across cities, countries – even anger. Unbreakable. I felt them that first time I watched her play soccer.She needed to win so badly. I watched a new Gracie crack out of her cocoon that day. Grey, moth-like, she seemed covered in a dust that let her take to the air. Fly. They’re beautiful things, moths, with their dark patterned wings hooking on wind to push them forward. You have to be careful with them, though. Brush them just lightly, and they can’t fly anymore.”
Cath Crowley“ALYCE: 'Gracie's got brown hair, like me. She's about the same height, too. People notice her. I think it's her voice. It's always louder than you expect and covered with laughter.I was surprised when she said she didn't want to work with me. I don't know Gracie very well, but I remember once in Year 3 she gave me an invitation to her party. She spelt my name right. Everyone always spells it with an 'i', even the teachers. Ever since then I thought she would be nice. I never thought she'd look at me like I was nothing.”
Cath Crowley, The Life and Times of Gracie Faltrain“How can I explain to her that I just can't come home? It's too soon, it's too late; I do want to be with Helen every second of the day but at the same time I don't want to be with her at all. I want to have back what I felt at the beginning. I could no more leave her then than leave my arms or legs. How do you find the beginning, though? There are no roads or signs. You start to doubt it even exists. The hardest thing isn't deciding that I want to go back to when Helen and Gracie and I were us. The most difficult thing is finding the map to get there.”
Cath Crowley, The Life and Times of Gracie Faltrain“Gracie, you are exactly where you are supposed to be and everything is going to be all right.Willem”
Lisa C. Temple“That's what it's all about–knowing what you have to lose, but risking the loss anyway.”
Julie Reece Deaver, Say Goodnight, Gracie“This used to be a government of checks and balances. Now it's all checks and no balances.”
Gracie Allen“Smartness runs in my family. When I went to school I was so smart my teacher was in my class for five years.”
Gracie Allen“When my mother had to get dinner for 8 she'd just make enough for 16 and only serve half.”
Gracie Allen“Prettiness fades after a few years, but elegance only increases with age.”
