More quotes by Helen Keller
I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days during their early adult life. Darkness would make them more appreciative of sight silence would teach them the joys of sound.
Helen Keller
The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
Helen Keller
Surely there is no road of effort so steep but a loving deed may soften its hardshness.
Helen Keller
The heart of a friend gives out sufficient light for us in the dark to rise by.
Helen Keller
A smile goes a long way, but you must first start it on its journey.
Helen Keller
Four things to learn in life: To think clearly without hurry or confusion To love everybody sincerely To act in everything with the highest motives To trust God unhesitatingly.
Helen Keller
Education should train the child to use his brains, to make for himself a place in the world and maintain his rights even when it seems that society would shove him into the scrap-heap.
Helen Keller
Knowledge is happiness, because to have knowledge - broad, deep knowledge - is to know true ends from false, and lofty things from low.
Helen Keller
I have never believed that my limitations were in any sense punishments or accidents. If I had held such a view, I could never have expected the strength to overcome them.
Helen Keller
Often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.
Helen Keller
We must not creep along when our souls cry out for us to soar!
Helen Keller
There is no king who has not had a slave among his ancestors, and no slave who has not had a king among his.
Helen Keller
The struggle of life is one of our greatest blessings. It makes us patient, sensitive, and Godlike. It teaches us that although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
Helen Keller
Our worst foes are not belligerent circumstances, but wavering spirits.
Helen Keller
When indeed shall we learn that we are all related one to the other, that we are all members of one body?
Helen Keller
Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourse of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.
Helen Keller
Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight. True education combines intellect, beauty, goodness, and the greatest of these is goodness. When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
Helen Keller
As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.
Helen Keller
Alone we can do so little together we can do so much.
Helen Keller
It is for us to pray not for tasks equal to our powers, but for powers equal to our tasks, to go forward with a great desire forever beating at the door of our hearts as we travel toward our distant goal.
Helen Keller
