"I avoid my hearing aids whenever possible. When you have hearing loss, you get accustomed to not hearing these obnoxious sounds—machinery, and music. The hearing aid people will say that hearing is a precious things. I say controlled hearing is a precious thing. You hear what you want to hear, and see what you want to see, too."

interesting (optimistic?) outlook... could this be part of "consider it all joy my brethren..."? I could just picture some patients saying that too :-)
