From Schmidt's episode:
"I think one of the more enlightening observations is that when I was young, I was arguing pretty selfish. And I thought I felt satisfaction in only generating excellence with myself, but now I think I find more satisfaction in helping to cultivate the experts and others. And I realized totally that I had professional athlete insurance, and resources and an education and a support system, and that enabled me to continue on post my accident and probably do a heck of a lot more with my life in this situation than I would have out of a wheelchair."
