Quote #7
The Pants mysteriously held the attributes of her three best friends, and luckily bravery was one of them. (24.48)
The Pants are becoming one of life's greatest mysteries, like the Loch Ness Monster and who shot JFK. But here's the real mystery of the Pants for you: Why didn't they disintegrate from being so old and dirty?
Quote #8
She would just stay here holding Bailey's hand for all time, so Bailey wouldn't be afraid that there wasn't enough of it. (20.91)
Bailey's fear is that she will run out of time before people can truly see who she is. Tibby sits by her bedside though, trying to make this moment more bearable—which takes major courage on Tibby's party since she'd rather crawl into Mimi's cage and avoid life. The Pants help her find the courage within herself to stay by Bailey's side until the end.
