If I write what my soul thinks it will be visible, and the words will be its body.
Helen Keller
Death is no more than passing from one room into another. But there's a difference for me, you know. Because in that other room I shall be able to see.
Helen Keller
Joy is a spiritual element that gives vicissitudes unity and significance.
Helen Keller
Education should train the child to use his brains, to make for himself a place in the world and maintain his rights even when it seems that society would shove him into the scrap-heap.
Helen Keller
I am only one, But still I am one. I cannot do everything, But still I can do something And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.

Helen Keller
To me a lush carpet of pine needles or spongy grass is more welcome than the most luxurious Persian rug.
Helen Keller
What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.
Helen Keller
Things must be felt with the heart.
Helen Keller
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
It is better to have no sight than it is to have no vision.
Helen Keller
The greatest tragedy to befall a person is to have sight but lack vision.
Helen Keller
I feel the flame of eternity in my soul.
Helen Keller
College isn't the place to go for ideas.
