While sincerity is to carry the weight of knowledge in the self, it is also to be the lightness of being clean Picture Quote #1

Some things just go more quickly, more surprisingly, than others Picture Quote #1

Her drama was a drama not of heaviness but of lightness. What fell to her lot was not the burden but the unbearable lightness of being Picture Quote #1
