I am filled with hope, energy, and love by participating in the National
Federation of
the Blind because my expectations are raised, my contributions make a
difference to
me and to others, and I can celebrate the realization of my dreams with my
Federation family.








A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human
life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will
never sit.
