Quotes 

• Gili Laha Nachmani : Michal, can I call you "Michali"?

  Michal Levinstein : Yes.

  Gili Laha Nachmani : And "Michali the cripple"?

• Gili Lahav Nachmani : [after the supreme court has declared that handicapped people may try out for Air Force Combat Pilot training]  ... Thousands of handicapped people have begun preparing for flight school try-outs. We have selected just one. Michal Levinstein, a crippled girl, paralysed from the waist down, with one lung, one kidney, and mental retardation.

  Michal Levinstein : I'm not retarded!

  Gili Lahav Nachmani : So what? It's a better story if you are. Michal, do you REALLY believe you'll pass the selection program?

  Michal Levinstein : Of course! I have a motto: There's no "Can't", there's only "Won't"!

  Gili Lahav Nachmani : But in your case, there IS "Can't". Can't stand up. Can't run around. Can't feel this...

  [Gili kicks Levinstein in the shin] 

  Michal Levinstein : Owww!

  Gili Lahav Nachmani : Can't swim. Can't dance. Can't go into a room without everyone saying "Ecccch, look at that disgusting cripple... blehhhhh"
