"I may have to grow older, but I do not have to grow up!"

One of those inquiries had to do with advise he would offer to those aspiring in acting.

"If you're serious about the pursuit of acting for the fame, wealth, and
trappings (commonly related to it), forget it. There are far to many in
this business with that mindset. If however, you wish to see what you can contribute to the craft, (are willing to starve), an opportunity to bring
your interpretation, learn, as well as take direction, & criticism, then, by all means do so.
There aren't enough doing just that. If you choose ANY other profession, you must do likewise. It's what you can contribute that becomes your barometer in life."

Even when he was at the peak of health, his mantra was giving, contribution.
He never wavered.
Christopher Reeve was not the underdog you rooted for.
For whatever reason, you just knew he would walk.

He was ALWAYS too busy counting his blessings to bother counting his liabilities & setbacks.
Not a bad legacy.....................
