“I can’t write myself except through reading others’ words.”
Sheila Black, Beauty is a Verb: The New Poetry of Disability

“Friends change toward the ill person, some revealed in their strange and beautiful kindness and some exposed in their utter, ugly selfishness.”
Sheila Black, Beauty is a Verb: The New Poetry of Disability

“the capacity to engage in pleasurable activity—experiences sought for their own sake, for the stimulation and enjoyment they provide—is assumed to be out of reach of the disabled. This notion is fed by deterministic arguments that accord tremendous weight to disability, in effect saying that it eclipses pleasure, joy, and to an extent, creativity...The humanities and the arts can benefit from an analysis of who in society is believed to be entitled to pleasure and who is thought to have the capacity to provide pleasure.”
