Quote from Rose in Blind Ambitions
Rose: Well, maybe you're right. But I think I have a good reason to be worried this time. Lily, I think you're trying to do too much by yourself. Lily: I've never been one to depend on other people, Rose. You know that. Rose: But this is different. You're not trying out for the track team in high school. You're trying to learn to cope with daily life as a blind person. Lily: Do you see this dress, Rose? It's my favorite. Rose: It's awfully pretty. Lily: It's my favorite because it's the only one I can clearly remember. I remember what it looks like. And I remember what it looks like on me. And because of that, I wear it all the time. Rose: You will adjust, Lily. Lily: I don't want to adjust! I want to be the person that I used to be! Rose: But you have to face the truth. You need help! Now, you can deal with it, but you can't do it all by yourself. Lily: Rose, all my life I've done everything I wanted to do. Nothing's ever stood in my way before. For the past six months, that's how I've been trying to deal with everything. I thought that I could overcome this thing by myself. I guess that deep down inside, I thought I could make it go away. But I can't. Every morning when I wake up, it's still there. And that terrifies me. Rose, I do need your help. That's why I came to Miami. To ask you to come home with me. Oh, Rose, please come home with me! I can't make it by myself.
