Your body is not who you are. The mind and spirit transcend the body.

Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.

I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.

Some people are walking around with full use of their bodies and they're more paralyzed than I am.

I have more awareness of other people and, I hope, more sensitivity to their needs. I also find that I'm more direct and outspoken.
