The cry of people with disablities was a very simple cry: do you love me? That's what they were asking. And that awakened something very deep within me, because that was also my fundamental cry. I knew I could be a success. I had done well in the navy. I had a doctorate in philosophy. I knew I could go up the ladder, but I didn't know whether I was really loved.[Jean Vanier in "Living Gently in a Violent World," page 31]
