“A handicapped person is, by force of circumstance, a potential expert, a mutant in the motor and sensory domain. It is no accident that the social is in creasingly being organized around him: the blind person and the spastic constitute testing grounds, interesting mechanisms which it seems proper to cerebralize, whilst at the same time socializing them for form's sake. They have it in them to become wonderful instruments, precisely because they are immobilized and therefore marked down for automatism and remote control.

It was eunuchs who provided the most beautiful voices in the choirs of the Renaissance.” Remote ControlArtificial Deficiency Book:Cool memories Source: Cool memories
