“My father spoke with his hands. He was deaf. His voice was in his hands. And his hands contained his memories.”
Myron Uhlberg, Hands of My Father: A Hearing Boy, His Deaf Parents, and the Language of Love

“Sign is a live, contemporaneous, visual-gestural language and consists of hand shapes, hand positioning, facial expressions, and body movements. Simply put, it is for me the most beautiful, immediate, and expressive of languages, because it incorporates the entire human body.”
Myron Uhlberg, Hands of My Father: A Hearing Boy, His Deaf Parents, and the Language of Love

“Does sound have rhythm? Does it rise and fall like the ocean? Does sound come and go like wind?”
Myron Uhlberg, Hands of My Father: A Hearing Boy, His Deaf Parents, and the Language of Love
