Aimee Mullins Quotes
- Giving up is conceding that things will never get better, and that is just not true. Ups and downs are a constant in life, and I’ve been belted into that roller coaster a thousand times.
- If we want to discover the full potential in our humanity, we need to celebrate those heartbreaking strengths and those glorious disabilities we all have. It is our humanity and all the potential within it that makes us beautiful.
- I was once told that I had become too confident and that it made me less likeable. Many successful people will get this at some point, because the people who haven’t followed a similar path can be threatened by someone who has and is unabashed about it.
- True beauty is when someone radiates that they like themselves.
- Belief in oneself is incredibly infectious. It generates momentum, the collective force of which far outweighs any kernel of self-doubt that may creep in.
- The idea of prosthetics is a tool. Most people’s cell phones are prosthetics. If you leave your cell phone at home, you feel impacted by not having it. It’s an important part of your daily function and what you can do in a day.
- In athletics, the idea of possibility is presumed. It’s not ‘if;’ it’s ‘how.’
Aimee Mullins Book. - Adversity isn’t an obstacle that we need to get around in order to resume living our life. It’s part of our life.

Interview
Mullins’ life story is as amazing as it is incredible. She is a ground-breaking Paralympian and the world’s first athlete to run on the Flex-Foot Cheetah carbon fiber sprinting legs.
A role model we could all get behind, Mullins’ a sports pioneer and one-time president of the Women’s Sports Foundation, and a TED talks All-Star.
She also modeled for Alexander McQueen (Mullins opened his London show on a pair of hand-carved wooden prosthetic legs) and continued to work with the designer until 2010 when he died.
Named one of the 50 most beautiful people in the world by People magazine, she is also an advocator for women and has also gone into acting.
Mullins was most recently seen in Stranger Things and has gone on to work on movies of her own. Born without fibular bones in her legs, she had to have both her legs amputated as an infant.
Yet rather than be defeated by her condition, she found the courage to overcome it and not only that, she even managed to surpass the accomplishments of many or most able-bodied people.
Mullins’ TED conference talks are among the most-viewed ones of all time and have been translated into 42 different languages. At the Cartier Social Lab in San Francisco this April to speak on Mind Over Body, she contemplated the notion of fear and its importance as a great motivator in life.
