Christopher Reeve
Don't put a limit on what can be accomplished.
Christopher Reeve

Christopher Reeve
We can either watch life from the sidelines, or actively participate... Either we let self-doubt and feelings of inadequacy prevent us from realising our potential, or embrace the fact that when we turn our attention away from ourselves, our potential is limitless.
Christopher Reeve

Christopher Reeve
People may never understand this - and perhaps I should give up caring whether they do or not - but the idea of me playing Superman is so far away from what I was brought up to aspire to.
Christopher Reeve
I don't think actors are to blame for poor writing. The culture changes first, and the theater follows it. In the case of the movies, it's the same thing.
Christopher Reeve
You can do anything you think you can.
Christopher Reeve
there is a relationship between the mind and the body that can both create a physical condition and enable us to recover from it
Christopher Reeve
I gradually stopped wondering, ‘What life do I have?' and began to consider, ‘What life can I build?
Christopher Reeve
If you don't have a vision, nothing happens.
Christopher Reeve
I did my first apprenticeship when I was 15, then joined the union when I was 17. I worked every summer in high school and college.
