“You’ve been falling in gravity since the day you were born. Because it is constant, gravity is ignorable. Movement and gravity are another of those ‘intimate and sensitive’ relations in that every movement will relate to gravity — dramatized by the notion that only the surface on which one is supported is causing a pause in the fall. While standing, we are falling toward our feet, i.e., the force of gravity remains operative.” — Steve Paxton
