More quotes by Helen Keller

Image
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
Image
I have often thought it would be a blessing if each human being were stricken blind and deaf for a few days during their early adult life. Darkness would make them more appreciative of sight silence would teach them the joys of sound.
Helen Keller
Image
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
Image
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
Image
I will eat grandfather for dinner.
Helen Keller
Image
Happiness is like the mountain summit. It is sometimes hidden by clouds, but we know it is there.
Helen Keller
Image
Rebuffed, but always persevering self-reproached, but ever regaining faith undaunted, tenacious, the heart of man labors toward immeasurably distant goals.
Helen Keller
Image
I find that fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present.
Helen Keller
Image
There is joy in self-forgetfulness. So I try to make the light in others' eyes my sun, the music in others' ears my symphony, the smile on others' lips my happiness.
Helen Keller
Image
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
Helen Keller
Image
Ideas without action are useless.
Helen Keller
Image
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
Image
We must not creep along when our souls cry out for us to soar!
Helen Keller
Image
No smile is as beautiful as the one that struggles through tears.
Helen Keller
Image
I believe there are angels among us, sent down to us from somewhere up above. They come to you and me in our darkest hours, to show us how to live, to teach us how to give, to guide us with a light of love.
Helen Keller
Image
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Helen Keller
Image
God himself is not secure, having given man dominion over his work.
Helen Keller
Image
I do not mean to object to a thorough knowledge of the famous works we read. I object only to the interminable comments and bewildering criticisms that teach but one thing: there are as many opinions as there are men.
Helen Keller
Image
For my part, I wish, with Mr. Howells, that the literature of the past might be purged of all that is ugly and barbarous in it, although I should object as much as any one to having these great works weakened or falsified.
Helen Keller
Image
I have made my limitations tools of learning and true joy.
