Quotable Quotes:
"Because of dyslexia, my brain works differently, and I can see these patterns. I do have a gift that other people don't have, and I will always stay ahead of the crowd and see more in an image than other people. You can't overcome it; you can work around it and make it work for you, but it never goes away. That's probably a good thing, because if dyslexia went away, then the other gifts would go away, too."
"You develop the ability to be a big-picture person rather than a detail-oriented person, dyslexics think much faster, and it's a more creative way of thinking. I'm very proud of it."
"I was never accommodated. I had to swim in the waters with everybody else."
