about

What is a normal American? (Gertrude Stein)
Some men do wrong. (Julia Dehning and her mother)
I will throw the umbrella in the mud. (Martha Hersland as a child)
Repeating Is what I am loving. (Martha Hersland as an adolescent)
I like loving. Sometimes. (Julia Dehning, newlywed)
Once an angry man dragged his father along the ground through his own
orchard. “Stop!” cried the groaning old man at last, “Stop! I did not drag
my father beyond this tree.” (Chorus)
