"I
discovered early that the hardest
thing to overcome is not a physical disability but the mental
condition which it induces. The world, I found, has a way of

embarrassment from others. But if he gains his own respect,
the respect of those around him comes easily." Alexander

specific disabilities of a certain severity. " Source:
