“He raised his sunglasses and saw a young woman in an impossibly brief dress with an improbably welcoming smile”
“In a brief, surreal moment, she could see the young man he used to be in his smile.”
“He looked into the crowd for approval, saw his mother and father. He waved and they waved back. Smiles and Indian teeth. They were both drunk. Everything familiar and welcome. Everything beautiful.”
“When a woman smiles,then her dress should smile to”
“Improbable is not the same as impossible.”
“Probable impossibilities are to be preferred to improbable possibilities.”
