I wouldn't get too convoluted into an analysis of 'gravity'. It's just a
mistranslation of 'pensateur', thinker -- the famous sculpture by Rodin that S.
Weil would see everyday on the metro to the Tulleries.
Thinker and Grace. Grace being the other sculpture by Mrs. Rodin, not so
well known. They are both now in the same museum (The Rodin Museum, in Paris).
Cheers,
JL
