“They see a group of teenage people standing together anywhere else, they’d be arrested for being gangbangers. They see a bunch of disable people and think we’re selling lemonade. Where is the respect?” (250)

“I just don’t want the kind of career where you have to do things that–whatever. That you don’t think you should do. If that’s possible.” (278)

“If you show these kids the slightest bit of attention, they’ll become your best friend. They’re like sunflowers and you’re the sun.” (102-3)
