How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)
Quote #7
Had they always been trying to speak to them? There was no way of knowing, either, if the trees were good or bad, if they loved or hated humans, if they had principles or compassion. They were like aliens, Gansey thought. Aliens that we have treated very badly for a very long time. If I were a tree I would have no reason to love a human. (26.46)
Are all trees capable of talking, or is it something that only the Cabeswater trees can do? Either way, Gansey can't imagine that trees—magical or not—like humans that much. They probably won't tell him anything about Glendower.
Quote #8
"I live with this, though. I mean, my mother is a psychic. All her friends are psychics. This is—well, it's not like it's normal. But it's how I always thought it would feel to be them. You know, to see things that other people don't." (28.35)
Blue is the only one of Gansey's friend who doesn't seem all that weirded out by Cabeswater. That's not because she has a strong stomach, but rather because she's always around weird things. Do you think she'd spend all night at an abandoned church every St. Mark's Eve if she didn't believe in the supernatural?
Quote #9
Gansey's thumb worried over his bottom lip. He asked Adam," What's going on?"
Adam replied, "We're being haunted." (29.75-76)
Like Casper, Noah's actually a pretty friendly ghost to be haunted by. As far as supernatural phenomena go, Noah's haunting of his friends is probably the least threatening thing ever.
