"The one blanket statement that I can make about autism is that there is no blanket statement to be made about autism."-Jory Fleming, How to Be Human: An Autistic Man's Guide to Life
"Critical thinking is often very uncomfortable, at least in my opinion. You have to reevaluate yourself, which means that, heaven forbid, you might be wrong sometimes. Most people don't like neutral. They want you to have an opinion. And I've always been of the mind that opinions are only useful if you're willing to change them very rapidly. I feel like the stronger your opinion, the weaker you should hold it."-Jory Fleming, How to Be Human: An Autistic Man's Guide to Life
