Rosa Admiration Quotes

You really get the sense of the speaker looking back fondly on Parks sitting on the bus. It's the "how" that gives it the tone of admiration. Dove could have easily left it out and said, "She sat there" and the line would have been considerably less praiseful.

Not only is Dove giving Parks props for what she did, but she recognizes the fact that she did it in a time when it was most needed, and most difficult.

The attention to detail—to something so seemingly insignificant as the length of Parks's name—gives the speaker's admiration away big time.
