[On Thursday night Close proverb

 [On Thursday night, Close will be presented with the Human Spirit Award by the Christopher Reeve Paralysis Foundation at a glittery dinner in Manhattan. A longtime friend of the] Superman ... a very little drop in the ocean compared to the things he's done.
  Glenn Close

 I was lucky to be able to call Christopher Reeve a friend.His passion for life and for improving the lives of all Americans serves an inspiration to all of us. He may have played the character of Superman in the movies, but he lived the role of a superman through his life.

 On behalf of the entire board of directors and staff of the Christopher Reeve Foundation, we are extremely saddened by the death of Dana Reeve, whose grace and courage under the most difficult of circumstances was a source of comfort and inspiration to all of us.

 I feel that this award was not made to me as a man, but to my work -- a life's work in the agony and sweat of the human spirit, not for glory and least of all for profit, but to create out of the materials of the human spirit something which did not exist before. So this award is only mine in trust.
  William Faulkner

 The thoughts and prayers of the entire Christopher Reeve Foundation team are with Dana and her loved ones during this difficult time. We are certain that Dana will tackle this challenge with the grace, courage, and determination that have become her hallmark.

 The thoughts and prayers of the entire Christopher Reeve Foundation team are with Dana and her loved ones during this difficult time, ... We are certain that Dana will tackle this challenge with the grace, courage and determination that have become her hallmark.

 What we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But if that drop was not in the ocean, I think the ocean would be less because of that missing drop. I do not agree with the big way of doing things.

 [Calling Reeve, who died Sunday after nine years as a quadriplegic,] a powerful voice for the need to do stem cell research and change the lives of people like him, ... If we do the work that we can do in this country, the work that we will do when John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve will get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.

 Christopher Reeve: Courageous Steps.
  Christopher Reeve

 She has really amazed me with how much she has been doing ever since Christopher Reeve's death,

 He was a close friend to me. Living in Manhattan, and not having a lot of understanding of that city, it was good to have a friend like him. He and his son Jonathan took my wife and me under their wing and showed us direction and gave us ways to be influential to other people through charities. Anything we ever needed, he was there for us.

 Dana Reeve used the great personal challenge of her husband's paralysis to work so that other families would not have to endure the same pain.

 I find it opportunistic to use the death of someone like Christopher Reeve -- I think it is shameful -- in order to mislead the American people,

 And yet I think of Christopher Reeve who said he would pay two million dollars to be able to feel pain again. What a courageous man! So I have to think that pain is a blessing.

 When John Kerry is president, people like Christopher Reeve are going to walk. Get up out of that wheelchair and walk again.

 Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence.
