I can see in what you call the dark, but which to me is golden.
Helen Keller
Image
Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same.
Helen Keller
Image
I find that fact and fancy look alike across the years that link the past with the present.
Helen Keller
Image
Gullibility is the key to all adventures. The greenhorn is the ultimate victor in everything it is he who gets the most out of life.
Helen Keller
Image

We must not creep along when our souls cry out for us to soar!
Helen Keller
Image
What can rulers, nobility and all the lords of the earth say to justify the horrible killing and maiming of twenty or thirty million valuable men who a short while ago ploughed, dug, wove, built, guided the traffic of the world, took their pleasure, loved their fellows, cherished their families, and feared naught?
Helen Keller
Image
As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.
Helen Keller
Image
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
Image
Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought.
Helen Keller
Image
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Helen Keller
Image
Trying to write is very much like trying to put a Chinese puzzle together. We have a pattern in mind which we wish to work out in words but the words will not fit the spaces, or, if they do, they will not match the design.
Helen Keller
Image
The heart of a friend gives out sufficient light for us in the dark to rise by.
Helen Keller
Image
Speech is the birthright of every child. It is the deaf child's one fair chance to keep in touch with his fellows.
