Helen Keller
Image
When it seems that our sorrow is too great to be borne, let us think of the great family of the heavy-hearted into which our grief has given us entrance. And inevitably, we will feel about us their arms, their sympathy and their understanding.
Helen Keller
Image
I have depended on books not only for pleasure and for the wisdom they bring to all who read, but also for that knowledge which comes to others through their eyes and their ears.
Helen Keller
Image
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Helen Keller
Image
Be not dismayed in the future lies the Promised Land.
Helen Keller
Image
I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.
Helen Keller
