Part 4 of 4



Call him dull and hopeless and flunk him in the sixth grade, and you have a Winston Churchill.



Punish her with poverty and prejudice, and she may survive to become another Golda Meir.



Pit her against sexual discrimination, and you have

a Madame Curie.



Tell a young boy who loved to sketch and draw that he has no talent, and you have Walt Disney.



Take a crippled child whose only home he

ever knew was an orphanage, and you have a

James E. West, who became the first chief executive of the Boy Scouts of America.



Rate him as "mediocre" in chemistry, and you have

a Louis Pasteur.



Deny a child the ability to see, hear and speak,

and you have a Helen Keller.



Make him a second fiddle in an obscure South American orchestra, and you have a Toscanini.
