Verne Troyer
Now I get to pick and choose exactly what I want to do.
Verne Troyer
My parents taught me to be optimistic and independent. They made me feel that I could do anything I set my mind to, which has really helped me. They didn’t make allowances for me because of my height. I had to do everything my brother and sister had to do, including raising our animal menagerie that included cows and chickens.

Verne Troyer
