More quotes by Helen Keller

Helen Keller

Helen Keller
I find that fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present.
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
Do not think of to-day's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow.
Helen Keller
Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
Helen Keller
There is in the blind as in the seeing an Absolute which gives truth to what we know to be true, order to what is orderly, beauty to the beautiful, touchableness to what is tangible.
Helen Keller
I do not remember a time since I have been capable of loving books that I have not loved Shakespeare.
Helen Keller
The best things in life are unseen, thats why we close our eyes when we kiss, cry, and dream
Helen Keller
My share of the work may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious.
Helen Keller
