There is a condition worse than blindness, and that is, seeing something that isn't there.

In many ways, I'm incredibly lucky to have been born with my impairment and that it's visible. It means my path has been predictable.

Sometimes, I feel I am really blessed to be blind because I probably would not last a minute if I were able to see things.

I was walking around legally blind. Now I have 20-20 vision. I can't believe I spent so many years blurry, but I think that coincides with how I was feeling. Now I notice if people are watching me, but I also smile right back if someone waves, which helps.

The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.

I think we all suffer from acute blindness at times. Life is a constant journey of trying to open your eyes. I'm just beginning my journey, and my eyes aren't fully open yet.

Two kinds of blindness are easily combined so that those who do not see really appear to see what is not.

When you meet someone with a vision, you have to give them a shot and an opportunity to see what they can do.

The fact that I am blind is not what defines my life. It should be of no more interest than my blood type. People wonder if there is a relationship between my lack of sight and the way I sing. But there's no connection.

I am a visual person, given that I am deaf.
