• Added a quotation: “"See.... I learnt me a lesson. There's more than one way thet love comes. Oh, sure, sometimes it comes wild like, makin' creatures into wallerin' simpletons. I've seed 'em, I've been there myself; but it doesn't have to be thet way. Ya see, Marty, sometimes love comes sort stealin' up on ya gradual like, not shoutin' bold words or wavin' bright flags. Ya ain't even aware it's a growin' an' gettin' stronger until-- I don't know. All the sudden it takes ya by surprise like, an' ya think, 'How long I been a feelin' like this an' why didn't I notice it afore?'"”Ma Graham
