More quotes by Helen Keller
Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
Helen Keller
Alone we can do so little together we can do so much.
Helen Keller
Doubts and mistrust are the mere panic of timid imagination, which the steadfast heart will conquer, and the large mind transcend.
Helen Keller
Life is short and unpredictable. Eat the dessert first!
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
What could be worse than being born without sight? Being born with sight and no vision.
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
Joy is a spiritual element that gives vicissitudes unity and significance.
Helen Keller
God doesn't promise security from life's storms but security in life's storms. God doesn't always call the equipped, but he will always equip the called. In the long run, avoiding danger is no safer than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.
Helen Keller
I, who have never heard a sound, tell you there is no silence, and I, who have never seen a ray of light, tell you there is no darkness.
Helen Keller
I hung about the dangerous frontier of guess, avoiding with infinite trouble to myself and others the broad valley of reason.
Helen Keller
Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything wise in this world.
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
One painful duty fulfilled makes the next plainer and easier.
Helen Keller
Do not think of to-day's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow.
Helen Keller
It is better to have no sight than it is to have no vision.
Helen Keller
I have made my limitations tools of learning and true joy.
Helen Keller
I find that fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present.
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
Hope sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible.
