More quotes by Helen Keller
Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought. Strike against manufacturing shrapnel and gas bombs and all other tools of murder. Strike against preparedness that means death and misery to millions of human beings. Be not dumb, obedient slaves in an army of destruction. Be heroes in an army of construction.
Helen Keller
It was my teacher's genius, her quick sympathy, her loving tact which made the first years of my education so beautiful. It was because she seized the right moment to impart knowledge that made it so pleasant and acceptable to me.
Helen Keller
Your success and happiness lie in you. External conditions are the accidents of life, its outer trappings. The great, enduring realities are love of service. Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulty.
Helen Keller

Helen Keller
Instead of being satisfied to alleviate suffering, we shall labor hard and continually to prevent it.

Helen Keller
A well-educated mind will always have more questions than answers.
Helen Keller
I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.

Silver is purified in fire and so are we. It is in the most trying times that our real character is shaped and revealed.

Be heroes in an army of construction.
