“This place is alive," Sunni said in wonder. "Things are moving. Inside a painting.”
“Like the sundial, my paint box counts no hours but sunny ones.”
“Humor is the great thing, the saving thing. The minute it crops up, all our irritations and resentments slip away and a sunny spirit takes their place.”
“The moon was up, painting the world silver, making things look just a little more alive.”
“A girl in a yellow dress on a sunny day with nothing inside her but darkness”
“I could see everything she said as if it were a wall painting inside the cave of my own skull.”
