Susan Quinby's Top Twelve Quotes
Life’s most powerful lessons are the lessons we learn ourselves. You cannot lead someone to permanent change by doing for them what they
can and should do for themselves. If you give a person a fish, you've fed them for one night. If you teach
a person to fish, you've fed them for a lifetime. Environment shapes disability—and disability shapes environment. Not everything that is faced can be changed—but nothing can be
changed until it is faced.
The curious paradox is that when I accept
myself just as I am, then I can change.
If it weren’t for the people who go too far—the rest of us
wouldn’t go far enough. You are either part of the problem—or you're part of the solution. No good deed goes unpunished. The art of being wise is the art of knowing what to overlook.
Understand separate realities.
All of life is about timing.
