Quotes From The Piano:
Ada: At night! I think of my piano in its ocean grave,
and sometimes of myself floating above it. Down there everything
is so still and silent that it lulls me to sleep. It is
a weird lullaby and so it is; it is mine.
George Baines: I want to lie together without clothes on.
Ada: The voice you hear is not my speaking voice---but my
mind's voice. I have not spoken since I was six years old.
No one knows why---not even me. My father says it is a dark
talent, and the day I take it into my head to stop breathing
will be my last. Today he married me to a man I have not yet
met. Soon my daughter and I shall join him in his own country.
My husband writes that my muteness does not bother him--and
hark this! He says, "God loves dumb creatures, so why
not I?" 'Twere good he had God's patience, for silence
affects everyone in the end. The strange thing is, I don't
think myself silent. That is because of my piano. I shall
miss it on the journey.
