Inspiration does not come like a blot, nor is it kinetic energy striving, but it comes to us slowly and quietly all the time.

Having a disability changes your whole life, not just your attitude.

You read what Disraeli had to say. I don’t remember what he said. He said something. He’s no longer with us.
