Our work together lasted eleven years. Today, Sybil lives peacefully in a small college town where she's a professor of art.

  • (Joanne Woodward) "Once a long time ago when I was a little girl in Montana, I was laying in the grass looking at the ants. And the sun was warm on my back and the grass was deep and soft and the insects were buzzing -- everything was drowsy.

And pretty soon, ANOTHER ant came along and helped the first ant and together they carried it away. Well, I got so excited that I hollared to my mother and she came out and plopped down in the grass beside me and she said, now isn't that miraculous how much two creatures can accomplish together -- when they care about each other."
