Vanessa Redgrave: Mature Jennifer Worth

Quotes 

• Mature Jennifer Worth : [opening diary monologue]  The heavens don't always protect us. They choose, on occasion, to throw down challenges instead of simply showering more blessings on our heads. Not every tempest passes in an instant, not every deluge can be brushed off. We can cower, we can wait for blue skies to be restored - or we can take the plunge, defy the elements, and we can seize the day.

• Mature Jennifer Worth : [ending diary monologue]  Sometimes our lives overlap with others only briefly. We share troubles or laughter or learning and move on. Afterwards, all we will hold in common is a memory. The chapter passes like a storm, or sunshine, or an ordinary day. But the heavens always send us something new: a chance, a lease of life, a soulmate, or a friend. And the best, like love itself, fly back to us. In us, they make their home.
