[Some statues are erected, placed upon a pedestal to be admired, to have hands wearing their stones smooth and fingers brushing away veils of tears turned into glittering crystals, a litany of pains suffered. Some statues are toppled by angry hands, violent hands, hands that have no care about delicate things and seek only to destroy. She is Pygmalion's creation, stone made flesh, cool made warm, life reborn into unfeeling limbs and she is unable to respond.]
