Helen Keller

Helen Keller
Image

Helen Keller
Image
Touch each object as if tomorrow you would never be able to feel anything again.
Helen Keller
Image
God doesn't promise security from life's storms but security in life's storms. God doesn't always call the equipped, but he will always equip the called. In the long run, avoiding danger is no safer than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
Helen Keller
Image
Don't give me the peace that passeth understanding, give me understanding.
Helen Keller
Image
God himself is not secure, having given man dominion over his work.
Helen Keller
