“But with the admission that she was in love with him came the realization that life is a journey, and that you can never know what your heart’s desire is until after you achieve it.”
Jay Greenstein, Water Dance

“A caricature of what she’d been remained, sparely drawn in tones of gray and ivory.”
Jay Greenstein, Water Dance

“She was chewing on a problem, and the outside world was of little importance, for the moment.”
Jay Greenstein, Water Dance

“Nothing is impossible for the person who doesn't have to do the work.”
