More quotes by Helen Keller
I have never believed that my limitations were in any sense punishments or accidents. If I had held such a view, I could never have expected the strength to overcome them.
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
The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
Helen Keller
The idea of brotherhood re-dawns upon the world with a broader significance than the narrow association of members in a sect or creed.
Helen Keller
Life is an adventure or nothing
Helen Keller
For years to come the debris of a convulsed world will beset our steps. It will require a purpose stronger than any man and worthy of all men to calm and inspirit us. A sane society whose riches are happy children, men and women, beautiful with peace and creative activity, is not going to be ordained for us. We must make it ourselves.
Helen Keller
The struggle of life is one of our greatest blessings. It makes us patient, sensitive, and Godlike. It teaches us that although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
Helen Keller
The chief handicap of the blind is not blindness, but the attitude of seeing people towards them.
Helen Keller
While they were saying among themselves it cannot be done, it was done.
Helen Keller
We should not think of conversion as the acceptance of a particular creed, but as a change of heart.
Helen Keller
Life is to be lived as a magnificent adventure, or not at all.
Helen Keller
If I could have only one of my senses then I would choose hearing, Then I wouldn't feel so all alone.
Helen Keller
It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same amount of energy loving their fellow men, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui.
Helen Keller
What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.
Helen Keller
Your success and happiness lies in you. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.
Helen Keller
The woman who works for a dollar a day has as much right as any other human being to say what the conditions of her work should be.
Helen Keller
The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.
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
I can see, and that is why I can be happy, in what you call the dark, but which to me is golden. I can see a God-made world, not a manmade world.
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
