“Light. I took to watching it on the spring trees, noticing how it turned the delicate new leaves translucent. I observed the way it threw shadows against walls; tossed stardust across the surface of the water; made filigree on the ground where it fell through wrought-iron railings. I wanted to touch it, this marvelous tool. To hold it in my fingertips the way I did the tiny objects on my father's workbench.”

“If one is to accept that the universe is expanding at a constant rate, then it follows that it has been doing so since its beginning. Since its beginning, Mr. Gilbert." She stood very still, her head capped neatly by her white hair. "A beginning. Not Adam and Eve, I don't mean that. I mean a moment, some sort of action or event that started it all off. Space and time, matter and energy. A single atom that somehow"- she flexed open the fingers of one hand- "exploded. Good God." Her bright, quick eyes melt his. "We might be on the verge of understanding the very birth of the stars, Mr. Gilbert- the stars." The only natural light in the room came from the small front window of the house, and it graced the surface of her face, which was a study in wonder. It was beautiful and engaged, and Leonard could see in it the young girl she must once have been.”

“Every single one of us has the potential to be a Rainbow Warrior. We can find ways to spread a little love, light, joy, and happiness on our paths. We can open our hearts and minds to the thinking of other people, listen honestly to what they have to say, acknowledge their right to their viewpoints, adjust our own viewpoint when new information becomes clear, and work to achieve common ground. Then, hopefully, like the first pale-colored rays appearing on the horizon, we will encourage others to join us and become a full circle of gloriously bent light.”
