Has anyone read "The Poisonwood Bible" by Barbara Kingsolver?  It's an
amazing book.  I had jotted down a quote from it (months ago!) to add to my
web site, and as I was finally updating the site I thought I'd share:  "The
arrogance of the able-bodied is staggering. Yes, maybe we’d like to be able
to get places quickly, and carry things in both hands, but only because we
have to keep up with the rest of you. We would rather be just like us, and
have that be all right."  That really strikes a chord with me every time I
read it...
