"Love is the language that transcends all disabilities."

"The mind has no limitations that the spirit cannot overcome."

"I paint to communicate what my voice cannot say."

"Perseverance is not about never falling down; it is about always getting up."

"My disability taught me more about ability than any able body could."

"I learned that true courage is continuing despite your fear."

"The world underestimated me, and I made them regret it."

"I write because silence is a slow death."

"Change begins when we stop accepting the limitations others place on us."

"My story is not a tragedy; it is a triumph."
