Tracy Reed: Melissa DeVry

Quotes 

• Bannister Sparks : You know, a long time ago, poets in China thought that each star in the night sky was held in place by a single hummingbird and that if you saw a shooting star, it meant that one of the hummingbirds had died and dropped its star. Lanterns were lit on such occasions to replace the dropped star and to mourn the greatness of such a small loss.

  Melissa DeVry : Which are we, Bannister - the light of the dropped star or the small loss?

  Bannister Sparks : Forever the light, Melissa... forever the light.
