Meg Cabot Quote

You mentioned earlier that if I wanted to help, Miss Oliviera, I should save the lectures, and help, Mr. Smith said as he sprayed. Perhaps that’s exactly what Fates do.I shook my head, bewildered. I’m sorry?Perhaps Fates are people like us…ordinary souls who’ve found themselves caught up in the battle between good and evil, and have chosen to take a stand and help do what’s right. Mr. Smith was lecturing again, but this time the speech seemed to be directed at John, too. His tone was kindly, however. Maybe that’s why John’s fingerprints aren’t in the Isla Heusos Police Department database, and why no one will find his footsteps here. Small things that take just a moment to do, yes, but that could add up, in the end, to make an enormous difference to someone. What do you say to that, Miss Oliviera?I…I don’t know, I said. I was confused. I supposed he was right, though. This could certainly explain how John was able to drift like a ghost in and out of the Isla Heusos Cemetery-and my various schools-leaving behind no trace, except rumors and the faintest images on video, and broken padlocks and chains.
