Oliver Sacks Quotes
I Cannot Pretend I Am Without Fear. But My Predominant Feeling Is One Of Gratitude. I Have Loved And Been Loved; I Have Been Given Much And I Have Given Something In Return; I Have Read And Traveled And Thought And Written. I Have Had An Intercourse With The World, The Special Intercourse Of Writers And Readers.
Above All, I Have Been A Sentient Being, A Thinking Animal, On This Beautiful Planet, And That In Itself Has Been An Enormous Privilege And Adventure.
