"And she would appreciate that everyone has a story to tell. But can you choose your story?"
"I listen to the quiet voices... If I listen to the few people who shout at me, I'm making them more important than they are... Instead, I listen very carefully for the quiet voices, which is most people... Those people, the quiet people, seem to have more important things to say."
A housecleaner who doubles as a companion to her employers. She collects people's stories, more of a listener than a storyteller. When it comes time to tell her story, things do get dark, but be assured there is a satisfying resolution in the end.
