“I fight against the gluttony of time with so many very amusing weapons with gestures and with three attitudes and with charming phrases; with tears and with tinsel, and with sugar-coated pills, and with platitudes slightly regilded. Yes, and I fight him also with little mirrors wherein gleam confusedly the corruptions of lust, and ruddy loyalty, and a bit of moonshine, and the pure diamond of the heart's desire, and the opal cloudings of human compromise: but, above all, I fight that ravening dotard with the strength of my own folly.” HumansHeartLittlesDesireFightingThreeBitsMy OwnAttitudeTearsPureWeaponsMirrorsCorruptionLoyaltyLustCompromisePhrasesFollySugarGesturesDiamondCharmingPillsAmusingGleamGluttonyPlatitudesOpalMoonshineTinsel Book:The Witch-woman: A Trilogy about Her Source: The Witch-woman: A Trilogy about Her

The gesture, the movement, is what is important, not the attitudes.” IfsImportantStatesFeelingsBodyAttitudeMovementGravityGesturesCenter Of Gravity Author:Jeanne de Salzmann
