Gary Coleman

"You can involve yourself in electronics, computers, puzzles... there's a lot of creativity and brain working. There's a lot to model trains that people don't realize."

"I have four strikes against me. I'm black, I'm short, I'm intelligent, and I have a medical condition."

"I never got the opportunity to be romantic or feel romantic with anyone."

"I read Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, Reader's Digest... I read some responsible journalism, and from that, I form my own opinions. I also happen to be intelligent, and I question everything."
