Text Quotes
I’ve learned that every human being, with or without disabilities, needs to strive to do their best, and by striving for happiness you will arrive at happiness. For us, you see, having autism is normal-so we can’t know for sure what your ‘normal’ is even like. But so long as we can learn to love ourselves, I’m not sure how much it matters whether we’re normal or autistic  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) Everybody has a heart that can be touched by something  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) When you see an object, it seems that you see it as an entire thing first, and only afterwards do its details follow on. But for people with autism, the details jump straight out at us first of all, and then only gradually, detail by detail, does the whole image float up into focus  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) Just by looking at nature, I feel as if I’m being swallowed up into it, and in that moment I get the sensation that my body’s now a speck, a speck from long before I was born, a speck that is melting into nature herself  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) Can you imagine how your life would be if you couldn’t talk?  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) On our own we simply don’t know how to get things done the same way you do things. But, like everyone else, we want to do the best we possibly can. When we sense you’ve given up on us, it makes us feel miserable. So please keep helping us, through to the end  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) Criticizing people, winding them up, making idiots of them or fooling them doesn’t make people with autism laugh. What makes us smile from the inside is seeing something beautiful, or a memory makes us laugh. This generally happens when there’s nobody watching us. And at night, on our own, we might burst out laughing underneath the duvet, or roar with later in an empty room... When we don’t need to think about other people or anything else, that’s when we wear our aural expressions  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) Normal people think we’re highly dependent and can’t live without ongoing support, but in fact there are times when we’re stoic heroes  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) We get swallowed up by the illusion that unless we can find a place to belong, we are going to be all alone in the world  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) The thought that our lives are the source of other people’s unhappiness, that’s plain unbearable  (Naoki Higashida Quotes) When I was small, I didn’t even know that I was a kidwith special needs. How did I find out? By other people telling me that I wasdifferent from everyone else, and that this was a problem  (Naoki Higashida Quotes)
