“Once as a guest on a television show, I was asked about the ‘positive’ side of dyslexia. As part of my answer, I listed a dozen or so famous dyslexics.  The hostess of the show then commented, ‘Isn’t it amazing that all those people could be geniuses in spite of having dyslexia.’ She missed the point.  Their genius didn’t occur in spite of their dyslexia, but because of it!”
