1 " The whole summer lay ahead of us-time to rest, time to wait. And when the future comes-no matter what comes with it-I'll be smarter. I'll be stronger. I'll be ready. "
― Ally Carter , Cross My Heart and Hope to Spy (Gallagher Girls, #2)
2 " So I hear we get to go to town this weekend. Want to catch a movie or something?--ZP.S. That is, if Jimmy doesn't mind.Translation: This weekend might be a good chance for us to see each other outside our school in a social environment, free of competetiton. I do not view other boys as threats, and I enjoy making them seem insignificant by calling them the wrong names. (Translation by Macey McHenry) "
3 " You don't need a search warrant to go through someone's trash. Seriously. Once it hits the curb it is totally fair game-you an look it up. "
4 " Because even though the truth can set you free, that doesn't mean it won't be painful. "
5 " Lies aren't just the things we tell -- they're the lives we lead. "
6 " But even the Gallagher Academy hadn't figured out a way to help us protect our hearts. "
7 " I always finish what i start "
8 " Most little girls in England grow up wanting to marrya prince. Bex grew up wanting to kick James Bond's butt and assume his double-0 ranking. "
9 " and then Zach said a really bad word, but I doubt DeeDee noticed because it was in Farsi "
10 " You really saw some?" Liz said an hour later. Sure, we had the stereo blaring and the shower running, but Liz still whispered, "They really...exist?" "Liz," I whispered back, "they're not unicorns." "No," Bex said flatly, "they're boys. And they're...good. "
11 " Once is a stranger; twice is a coincidence; three times is a tail. "
12 " Strapless bras? Well let's just say, I'm the kind of girl who likes things sufficiently strapped. "
13 " It was as if a virus had been injected into our school, but Macey'd known about a thousand boys before she'd come here. And I'd known Josh. The two of us had been exposed to boys before, so we had built up antibodies. We were, in a word, immune. "
14 " Did you hear that? I'm special. "
15 " It was my scientific opinion that Zach was one of those people who used his intelligence to make sure that no one knew exactly how intelligent he was (a tendency Macy tells me is common among boys with really sexy arms). "
16 " A pair of freshmen rushed by our door talking about who would make a better Gallagher Girl: Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Veronica Mars (a debate made much more interesting by the fact it was taking place in Farsi). "
17 " and when you're the girl known for being invisible, there's nothing quite as scary as being seen. - Cross My Heart And Hope To Spy "
18 " Oh, and Cammie," At the sounds of his voice, I spun around, expecting to hear him crack a joke or call me Gallagher Girl. The last thing I expected was to feel his arms sliding arounds me, to sense the whole world turning upside down as Zach dipped me in the middle of the foyer and pressed his lips to mine. Then he smiled that smile I'd come to know. "I always finish what I start. "
19 " you're the gallagher girl. figure it out."- zach "
20 " A Gallagher Girl's real grades don’t come in pass or fail—they're measured in life or death. "
