Dependent upon others
“What I am trying to envisage then is a form of political society in which it is taken for granted that disability and dependence on others are something that all of us experience at certain times in our lives and this to unpredictable degrees, and that consequently our interest in how the needs of the disabled are adequately voiced and met is not a special interest, the interest of one particular group rather than of others, but rather the interest of the whole political society, and interest that is integral to their conception of the common good.”
- Alasdair MacIntyre, Dependent Rational Animals (130)
