More quotes by Helen Keller
It is better to have no sight than it is to have no vision.
Helen Keller
Life is a daring adventure or nothing.
Helen Keller
A child must feel the flush of victory and the heart-sinking of disappointment before he takes with a will to the tasks distasteful to him and resolves to dance his way through a dull routine of textbooks.
Helen Keller
When indeed shall we learn that we are all related one to the other, that we are all members of one body?
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 mystery of language was revealed to me. I knew then that 'W-A-T-E-R' meant the wonderful cool something that was flowing over my hand. That living word awakened my soul, gave it light, joy, set it free.
Helen Keller
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
Helen Keller
The best educated human being is the one who understands most about the life in which he is placed.
Helen Keller
I believe that God is in me as the sun is in the colour and fragrance of a flower - the Light in my darkness, the Voice in my silence.
Helen Keller
My optimism is grounded in two worlds, myself and what is about me. I demand that the world be good, and lo, it obeys. I proclaim the world good, and facts range themselves to prove my proclamation overwhelmingly true.
Helen Keller
We must not creep along when our souls cry out for us to soar!
Helen Keller
Deep, solemn optimism, it seems to me, should spring from this firm belief in the presence of God in the individual not a remote, unapproachable governor of the universe, but a God who is very near every one of us, who is present not only in earth, sea and sky, but also in every pure and noble impulse of our hearts.
Helen Keller
There is a dangerous optimism of ignorance and indifference.
Helen Keller
Be not dismayed in the future lies the Promised Land.
Helen Keller
Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought.
Helen Keller
Great poetry needs no interpreter other than a responsive heart.
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
The greatest tragedy in life is people who have sight but no vision.
Helen Keller
If we believe that the sun and moon hang in the sky for our delight, there will be joy upon the hills and gladness in the fields.
Helen Keller
The test of all beliefs is their practical effect in life. If it be true that optimism compels the world forward, and pessimism retards it, then it is dangerous to propagate a pessimistic philosophy.
Helen Keller
