Louis Braille

Founder Of Divya Jyothi Charitable Trust

"Access to communication in the widest sense is access to knowledge, and that is vitally important for us if we are not to go on being despised or patronized by condescending sighted people. We do not need pity, nor do we need to be reminded that we are vulnerable. We must be treated as equals - and communication is the way we can bring this about".
