Our jobs determine what we deem more important: a painter is likely to claim that he or she would rather be deaf than be blind, whereas a singer is likely to claim the opposite.

All deaf people would kill for an opportunity to spend the entire day listening to sober adults whine.

To put an arrogant 'famous' singer in her place: pretend to be deaf.

Eyes are a deaf man’s ears. Ears are a blind man’s eyes.

Some people are color-blind; some are intellectually-deaf.
