The first time I saw Venice I was dumbstruck at this glorious
civilization emerging from the water, kind of crumbling, kind of
leaning, and supporting itself still. We stayed at the Gritti
Palace and listened to the church bells ring all the time. I had
the best nap of my life there.—Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio,
actress
