Quote by Jeffrey Stepakoff

“You ask a lot of questions for a girl in a tree." "Asking questions is a sign of intelligence." "I've heard that. Do your parents know you're out here?" "You ask a lot of questions for a lady who looks like she's been up all night." "Intelligence," Grace said playfully. "Barefoot in the mud? I dunno. You don't 'look' so smart.”

“Do you know much about airplanes?" he asked. I'm afraid I gave him a sour look, despite my efforts to seem like an innocent female. I suspected he knew quite well what I knew about airplanes and was trying to trap me. "I was an army observer at Tibbals Hill." "Ah, the station out at Fort Worden. What was that like?" "You can go see it for yourself. It's still there." "Can you tell me what you saw? Aircraft, ships...?" "No." It gave me satisfaction to say that, and to say it firmly. I was on certain ground now. "I'm sure, Mr., uh, Harrison---I'm quite sure you know I can't tell you that. I signed a secrecy agreement with the army." Woods cleared his throat again. I wondered which man was really the superior.”

“If you do not allow me to come, I shall write to my father." I gave a sharp breath of laughter. "You think he will sympathize with your desire to go charging into Faerie? I will rise in his esteem for refusing you--- though admittedly this is because his expectations of me are at ground level." "You don't understand," she said. "I shall write to him to say that you have given me little in the way of supervision, and allow me to wander the mountains at all hours, despite the danger. And then, after I have sent the letter off, I shall follow you into the nexus. And what will happen, do you think, if I do not catch up to you?" We gazed at each other in silence for a long moment. Ariadne looked pale, and several times she had the appearance of biting back an apology, but she did not apologize. Nor did she drop my gaze. "You wretched brat," I finally said. "I will tie you to your bed.”
