Quote by Gus Van Sant

Summary

This quote reflects the author's experience of feeling weary and older than their actual age when they were 14 years old.

He knew she was there by the rapture and the terror that seized on his heart. She was standing talking to a lady at the opposite end of the ground. There was apparently nothing striking either in her dress or her attitude. But for Levin she was as easy to find in that crowd as a rose among nettles. Everything was made bright by her.
