Helen Keller

Helen Keller

Helen Keller
The inferiority of women is man-made.
Helen Keller
As the eagle was killed by the arrow winged with his own feather, so the hand of the world is wounded by its own skill.
Helen Keller

Helen Keller
There is a dangerous optimism of ignorance and indifference.
Helen Keller
I found that of the senses, the eye is the most superficial, the ear the most arrogant, smell the most voluptuous, taste the most superstitious and fickle, touch the most profound and the most philosophical.
