Christopher Reeve

I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles.
Christopher Reeve - From speech at Democratic National Convention, August 1996
So many of our dreams at first seem impossible, then they seem improbable, and then, when we summon the will, they soon become inevitable.

Either you decide to stay in the shallow end of the pool or you go out in the ocean.

- Christopher Reeve
