Steve Martin Quotes
If you saw her in these moments, you might think she was collecting her thoughts in order to go forward.

The other is to re-experience and mourn something that happened long ago. It is as though her lightness pulls her toward heaven, but the extra gravity around her keeps her earthbound.
