I Haven't Had An Easy Life, But

Success Isn't Winning Every Time. A Lot Of Different Factors Go Into Every Race, And You Can't Control All Of Them. Success Means Doing As Excellent A Job As You Can On That Particular Day. The People I Admire Most Aren't Necessarily The Most Wonderful Athletes. I Admire The Ones Who Keep Coming Back And Doing It, Time After Time.

I'm Not An Advocate For Disability Issues. Human Issues Are What Interest Me.

For Me, I Never Ever Felt The Ownership Or Any Identity With Any Community Of Disabilities. I Didn't Grow Up Being Told That I Was A Disabled Child.

It's Society That Disables An Individual By Not Investing In Enough Creativity To Allow For Someone To Show Us The Quality That Makes Them Rare And Valuable And Capable.

I Hate The Words 'handicapped' And 'disabled'. They Imply That You Are Less Than Whole. I Don't See Myself That Way At All.
