Humanist--Are you at a cognitive disadvantage tonight?
Unlike an ordinary sentence, this has two conveyors of meaning not just one. It is an axiom. Now the first problem is that an axiom is an assumed truth (your truth) that need not (or cannot) be proved. Can you see both of them or just the meaning conveyed YOUR interpretation of the words?
This cliche is built on the idea that if you take away vision, you are hopelessly cripple, while in fact there are four other senses to help deal with the world. I find it interesting that the greatest pity is evoked among blind people for being blind and having some other disability, such as deafness or loss of mobility. Blindness alone certainly imposes limitations, but paying attention to the other senses (not developing super-senses) compensates in many ways.
BTW--giving you a star so more of my friends can give you more insight. You're welcome.

Franklin D. Roosevelt:
It is common sense to take a method and try it. If it fails, admit it frankly and try another. But above all, try something.
Republicans TRY things. Democrats just bash the Republican idea.
Your quote is SO not true!
