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.

One painful duty fulfilled makes the next plainer and easier.
Helen Keller
Image
I don't want to live in a hand -me -down world of others' experiences. I want to write about me, my discoveries, my fears, my feelings, about me.
Helen Keller
Image
Every one of us is blind and deaf until our eyes are opened to our fellowmen, until our ears hear the voice of humanity.
Helen Keller
Image
Unless we form the habit of going to the Bible in bright moments as well as in trouble, we cannot fully respond to its consolations because we lack equilibrium between light and darkness.
Helen Keller
Image
The bulk of the world's knowledge is an imaginary construction.
Helen Keller
Image
Your success and happiness lie in you. External conditions are the accidents of life, its outer trappings.
