--When I was very young, I thought that anyone who used a wheelchair was just lazy or stupid, as I had yet to comprehend the idea of body parts being paralyzed. You think "move your legs" and your legs move, I didn't see how that could be so hard. I felt so horrible when I realized my ignorance.
--I didn't understand why my mother wanted me to tell the family "sorry" for their loss when we were at an older lady's funeral. I loudly said "Why?! I didn't kill her!"
