More quotes by Helen Keller
Ignorance, poverty, and greed must disappear so that light can prevail in all places.
Helen Keller
I have found life so beautiful.
Helen Keller
Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.
Helen Keller
If we do not like our work, and do not try to get happiness out of it, we are a menace to our profession as well as to ourselves.
Helen Keller
The tragic side of many architectural enterprises is that they destroy natural beauties which are a priceless possession and cannot be replaced.
Helen Keller
Alone we can do so little together we can do so much.
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
It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision.
Helen Keller
The best Christmas gift of all is the presence of a happy family all wrapped up with one another. Jesus is the reason for the season! From a little spark may burst a mighty flame. The only blind person at Christmastime is he who has not Christmas in his heart.
Helen Keller
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Helen Keller
The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me. I am filled with wonder when I consider the immeasurable contrasts between the two lives which it connects. It was the third of March, 1887, three months before I was seven years old.
Helen Keller
I do not want the peace which passeth understanding, I want the understanding which bringeth peace.
Helen Keller
The beginning of my life was simple and much like every other little life. I came, I saw, I conquered, as the first baby in the family always does.
Helen Keller
To be blind is bad, but worse is to have eyes and not see.
Helen Keller
Be not dismayed in the future lies the Promised Land.
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
All truth goes through three stages. First it is ridiculed. Then it is violently opposed. Finally, it is accepted as self-evident. Facts are stubborn, and refusal to accept them does not avoid their inexorable effects-the tragic consequences are now upon us
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
Happiness is like the mountain summit. It is sometimes hidden by clouds, but we know it is there.
Helen Keller
Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living.
Helen Keller
