More quotes by Aimee Mullins
I'm not an advocate for disability issues. Human issues are what interest me.
Aimee Mullins
Pamela Anderson has more prosthetic in her body than I do. Nobody calls her disabled.
Aimee Mullins
The only true disability is a crushed spirit
Aimee Mullins
Adversity isn't an obstacle that we need to get around in order to resume living our life. It's part of our life.
Aimee Mullins
The power of the human will to compete and the drive to excel beyond the body's normal capabilities is most beautifully demonstrated in the arena of sport.
Aimee Mullins
It's hard enough for women to walk on high heels. And I'm on stilts!
Aimee Mullins
An athlete experiences the emotions of pain and elation through triumph and defeat, through teamwork and individuality, as nothing more than a human being...that is the true glory of sport.
Aimee Mullins
If you watch any John Hughes film of the eighties, that was my childhood experience.
Aimee Mullins
If left to their own devices a child will achieve.
Aimee Mullins
The legs that I have made are far more perfect than the ones nature would have given me - my mother's side of the family have awful legs.
Aimee Mullins
Half of Hollywood has more prosthetic in their body than I do, but we don't think of them as disabled. You amputate part of a nose, that's 'enhancement'. You put a prosthetic in a breast cavity, that's 'augmentation'. But you amputate part of a limb and put a prosthetic there, it's 'disability'?
Aimee Mullins
In athletics, the idea of possibility is presumed. It's not 'if' it's 'how.'
Aimee Mullins
There’s an important difference and distinction between the objective medical fact of my being an amputee and the subjective societal opinion of whether or not I’m disabled. Truthfully, the only real and consistent disability I’ve had to confront is the world ever thinking that I could be described by those definitions.
Aimee Mullins
Our responsibility is not simply shielding those we care for from adversity but preparing them to meet it well.
Aimee Mullins
It's society that disables an individual by not investing in enough creativity to allow for someone to show us the quality that makes them rare and valuable and capable.
Aimee Mullins
I like that Pilates compromises the mind and body. It's not just about being able to run around the block a few times. It's about alleviating stress and controlling breathing. It's about being balanced.
Aimee Mullins
Success isn't winning every time. A lot of different factors go into every race, and you can't control all of them. Success means doing as excellent a job as you can on that particular day. The people I admire most aren't necessarily the most wonderful athletes. I admire the ones who keep coming back and doing it, time after time.
Aimee Mullins
I think that everyone has something about themselves that they feel is their weakness... their 'disability.' And I'm certain we all have one, because I think of a disability as being anything which undermines our belief and confidence in our own abilities.
Aimee Mullins
A lot of my life is about will - having the will to prove what my body can do.
Aimee Mullins
Adversity is just change that we haven't adapted ourselves to yet.
