“There is no nation or state that enjoys economic takeoff by inciting class hatred. You cannot aspire to lead the poor into prosperity by condemning the rich into adversity. You cannot strengthen the weak by weakening the strong. Achieving collective prosperity goal through the bottom-up economic model without proper firewalls against its ills is like sitting on that wheelbarrow and trying to lift yourself up by the handles.”

“The essence of justice lies in punishment proportional to the harm, not merely to restore what was taken or lost, but to uphold the moral and social order, affirm the dignity of the wronged, and deter future transgressions, acknowledging that while restoration heals in its many forms, retribution primarily balances the scales of accountability.”

“This is something blind people have said (but really shouldn't have to), over and over, to the sighted world around us: we're still people. We don't see, or see very well, but aside from that, we're just like you. The failure to appreciate this basic fact, that someone's difference does nothing to alter their humanity, is the wellspring of all discrimination, alienation, and oppression. It ought to be obvious, but if you're not disabled, it's stubbornly easy to forget. It's as though, with regard to blind people, the sighted lack any sense of object permanence, the understanding a baby develops when her father hides his face behind his hands: she knows he hasn't really gone any-where. He's still there.”
