About This Quote

The title of this quote says it all. The spirit inside her moves the one in it. It’s right there in the title. He’s talking about finding the spirit in her body, in her soul, in the life she leads.

He sees that spirit in her movements. Her movements are much more than just physical, they are about the spirit that moves her. This is why he finds her so beautiful.

The entire quote is all about how she moves him and how much he loves that movement. She gives him an experience unlike any other woman he has ever known. We all know for a fact that beauty is not only outwardly appealing, but also an inner beauty that can move us to feel or do something different than what we normally might do.
