Slightly Impaired

I came across a partial list of famous people with speech disabilities and was impressed by how much these people had to fight to overcome their afflictions. I thought it might be uplifting for anyone struggling through their own battles to see a few of these names and to realize that with determination many things can be achieved. This is only a small list of the more recognizable names: Bruce Willis,Tiger Woods,Julia Roberts,Bill Walton,Jimmy Stewart,Bill Withers,Samuel L. Jackson,Winston Churchill,Aristotle,Charles Darwin,Sir Isaac Newton,Theodore Roosevelt,Washington Irving,Thomas Jefferson,Lewis Carroll and Marilyn Monroe. Kind of makes a person wonder if these people became famous because of having obstacles to overcome?
