The Wisdom of Sam: Observations on Life from an Uncommon Child QUOTES

1 " Yes, my sweet grandson, ultimately you are alone, in the sense that no one else can really understand what it’s like to be Sam.” But I know Sam pretty well and I know a bit about humans, so I would imagine Sam’s final question would be: “Well, can we be different and still be together?” Yes, Sam, once we understand that we are alone and once we stop trying to change it, then we can all be alone together. Then we will have lots of hands to hold the next time we face one of life’s revolving doors. "

― Daniel Gottlieb , The Wisdom of Sam: Observations on Life from an Uncommon Child
