'Will I lose my abilities?'
'As I said, your overall performance shouldn't be greatly impaired. But this isn't my area. There may be some effects on your cognitive abilities. But since your essential energy source is solar, you shouldn't be affected to any significant degree.'
(...)
I turned to him with a smile and nodded. 'Yes,' I said. 'Then let's try.'

Quote in quote:
There were arms encircling me, and I realized Josie was holding me in an embrace, not unlike the one she'd held me in that day at the store following the great decision. But this time, she spoke into my ear, so only I could hear:
'Don't worry. I'll never let anything bad happen to you. I'll talk to Mom. You go with Rick for now. Trust me.'

'So you see what's being asked of you, Klara.' Mr Capaldi said. 'You're not being required simply to mimic Josie's outward behavior. You're being asked to continue her for Chrissie. And for everyone who loves Josie.'

Quote in quote:
(...) 'Klara, we're not asking you to train the new Josie. We want you to become her. That Josie you saw up there, as you noticed, is empty. If the day comes – I hope it doesn't, but if it does – we want you to inhabit that Josie up there with everything you've learned.'

Quote in quote:
'Paul, come on. You haven't said hello to Klara. This here's Klara.'
The Father and Josie fell silent, both looking at me. The Father said: 'Klara. Hello.' The smile he'd had since entering the apartment had vanished.
(...)
'Paul,' the Mother said, 'you haven't spoke to Klara.'
'I just said hello.'
'Come on. Speak to her some more.'
'Part of the family. Is that what you're saying?'

'Rick must be a wonderful companion for Miss Helen. But as you can see, if you weren't with her, she'd be able to find other companions to laugh and talk with.'

Quote in quote:
'But surely ...' I lowered my voice even further. 'Surely the mother would never ...'
'Ma'am love miss Josie. But miss Sal die and mess Ma'am up bad. Get me AF?'

Quote in quote:
'Don't want to die, mom. I don't want that.'
'It's okay. Okay.' The Mother's voice was soft, at just the same level mine had been.
'I don't want that, Mom.'
'I know. I know. It's okay.'

Quote in quote:
... 'I'm surprised someone would desire so much a path that would leave her in loneliness.'
'And that's what surprises you?'
'Yes. Until recently, I didn't think that humans could choose loneliness. That there were sometimes forces more powerful than the wish to avoid loneliness.'

Quote in quote:
'Those are possibilities for the future. But Josie must know. I couldn't have a better home than this one. Or a better child than Josie. I'm glad I waited. That Manager allowed me to wait.'
Josie thought about this. Then when she smiled again, it was full of kindness, with no fear behind it. 'So we're friends right? Best friends.'
'Yes, of course.'

'You're an intelligent AF. Maybe you can see things the rest of us can't. Maybe you're right to be hopeful. Maybe you're right.'

Quote in quote:
'It's okay, Mom, don't worry. I'll get well soon. I know how it'll happen too.'
'What? what are you saying? you think you know more than the doctors? More than I do? Your sister made promises too. But she couldn't keep them. Don't you do the same.'
'But Mom. Sal was sick with something different. I'm going to get well.'

"I couldn't help hearing what was being said behind me, and though I sometimes thought I shouldn't listen, I remembered it was my duty to learn as much about Josie as possible, and that by listening in this way, I might gather fresh observations otherwise unavailable to me."

Quote in quote:
(Fortsättning på förra)
“The mother looked at me for a moment. Then she said: 'It must be great. Not to miss things. Not too long to get back to something. Not to be looking back all the time. Everything must be so much more …' “

Quote in quote:
“ 'Klara, are you happy here?'
'Yes I’d course.'
'Curious thing ask an AF. In fact, I don’t even know if that question makes sense. Do you miss that store?' “
“ ‘I sometimes think about the store,' I said. 'The view from the window. The other AFs. But not often. I’m very pleased to be here.' “

Quote in quote:
The mother says,
“ 'She certainly does. Josie’s become very fond of you. And if I may say so, so have I.'
'Thank you.'
'To tell you the truth, I wasn’t sure at first what I’d feel. Having you around, moving through the house all day. But Josie’s so much more calm, so much more cheerful since you got here.' “

Quote from p. 89:
“Though it might look impolite, I didn’t turn. Because if I did so, I’d not only see Missy – I knew of course what she was wearing Don to her purple wristband and tiny bear pendant – but also Josie, and then we would have to exchange looks with each other.”

Quote:
“In the days following the meeting, I worried also about how Josie might view my failure to respond to the long-armed girl’s questions.! In the situation that has developed – and in the absence of clear signals from Josie – is taken the course of considered to be for the best. But it now occurred to me Josie might, after a period of reflection, become angry with me.”
