Sara Nović
“Sign language had been so thoroughly stigmatized that in trying to avoid it, parents had unknowingly opted for a modern version of institutionalization, locking their children away in their own minds.”
Sara Nović, True Biz

Laurie Frankel
“Mr. Tongo tells Rosie, "We discuss lots of intimate things with our friends, but our genitals, and those of our children, are private. Many of my patients and clients-kids as well as their parents, people dealing with a whole range of conditions, not just this one-find they don't want to explain themselves every time they meet someone new. They don't want to be responsible for educating everyone they meet. They don't consider what's in their pants to be any of anyone else's business." (Chapter "Everyone Who?)”
Laurie Frankel, This Is How It Always Is

Anna Quindlen
“Yes, yes, yes, yes, somebody let me speak the truth, somebody let me," she cried... "Saying it is the only thing that makes me feel better, even the drugs aren't as good as that. All the things we don't say, all the words we swallow, and it makes nothing but trouble. I want to talk before I die. I want to be the one who gets to say things, who gets to think the deep thoughts. You'll all talk when I'm gone. Let me talk now without shushing me because it hurts you to hear what I have to say. I'm tired of being shushed.”
Anna Quindlen, One True Thing

Sara Nović
“It was hard to imagine what the world might be like if deaf people had as short a fuse about hearing people's inability to sign, their neglect or refusal to caption TV, or , hell the announcements on this bus. Of course, that was their privilege--to conflate majority with superiority.”
Sara Nović, True Biz

Anna Quindlen
“...when people wonder how I survived being accused of killing my mother, none of them realizes that watching her die was many, many times worse. And knowing I could have killed her was nothing compared to knowing I could not save her. And know I'd almost missed knowing her was far more frightening than Ed Best and his little army of shrunken suits.”
Anna Quindlen, One True Thing
