Blood flow Quote by Jane Hamilton

“I'd forgotten how your blood flows toward a person when they move, so that all at once, you know what the pull of gravity feels like. And you know that this is something strong and important, something that you need for life, this woman moving through the room.” quote by Jane Hamilton
