More quotes by Helen Keller
The danger of having the Constitution twisted and misconstrued to support vested interests and prejudices must be guarded against if American democracy is to maintain a progressive character.
Helen Keller
Speech is the birthright of every child. It is the deaf child's one fair chance to keep in touch with his fellows.
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
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
The things you do today that you don't have to do will determine who, what, and where you will be when it is too late to do anything about the things you should have done.
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
No nation is wise enough to rule another.
Helen Keller
To be blind is bad, but worse is to have eyes and not see.
Helen Keller
How futile are words in the ears of those who mourn.
Helen Keller
When all you can feel are the shadows, turn your face towards the sun.
Helen Keller
Trying to write is very much like trying to put a Chinese puzzle together. We have a pattern in mind which we wish to work out in words but the words will not fit the spaces, or, if they do, they will not match the design.
Helen Keller
The idea of brotherhood re-dawns upon the world with a broader significance than the narrow association of members in a sect or creed.
Helen Keller
Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. My optimism, then, does not rest on the absence of evil, but on a glad belief in the preponderance of good and a willing effort always to cooperate with the good, that it may prevail.
Helen Keller
The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
Helen Keller
If the blind put their hands in God's, they find their way more surely than those who see but have not faith or purpose.
Helen Keller
Smell is a fallen angel.
Helen Keller
Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought.
Helen Keller
World peace will never come until the passion of supremacy is combated.
Helen Keller
Life is an adventure or nothing
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
