If we believe that the sun and moon hang in the sky for our delight, there will be joy upon the hills and gladness in the fields.

I have found life so beautiful.

The one resolution, which was in my mind long before it took the form of a resolution, is the key-note of my life. It is this, always to regard as mere impertinences of fate the handicaps which were placed upon my life almost at the beginning. I resolved that they should not crush or dwarf my soul, but rather be made to blossom, like Aaron's rod, with flowers.

I, who have never heard a sound, tell you there is no silence, and I, who have never seen a ray of light, tell you there is no darkness.

The beginning of my life was simple and much like every other little life. I came, I saw, I conquered, as the first baby in the family always does.

Death is no more than passing from one room into another.

I don't want to live in a hand -me -down world of others' experiences. I want to write about me, my discoveries, my fears, my feelings, about me.
