Private Lives of Little People

Television (Full Length) – 1998

My main dream, really, is to be a ballroom dancing teacher or judge — but mainly a teacher. No one’s said 'oh you’re just dreaming ‘cos you’re short'.
– 12-year-old Holly Morrison, on her dreams and aspirations
I forget that I’m little. Kevin forgets that he’s little. I don’t go out every day...and wake up and think “I’m a dwarf” or “I have achondroplasia”. I don’t wake up and look at Kevin on the other side in our bed and think “oh he’s small”.
– Rebecca Palmer on living as a little person
If you love a person you don’t hurt them, but there are some things in life I can’t protect her from...and it hurts, the frustration of not being able to prevent that.
– Ron Morrison, on being the parent of another little person
