    I began to realize that it was bigotry of the worst kind to say that it’s better to be dead than to be born retarded or blind or without a limb. It’s a value judgment you’re making about someone’s life, based on their degree of perfection.
    Juli Loesch (b. c. 1953)

    A new degree of intellectual power seems cheap at any price.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
