More quotes by Helen Keller
Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.
Helen Keller
Touch each object as if tomorrow you would never be able to feel anything again.
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
World peace will never come until the passion of supremacy is combated.
Helen Keller
Face your deficiencies and acknowledge them but do not let them master you. Let them teach you patience, sweetness, insight. True education combines intellect, beauty, goodness, and the greatest of these is goodness. When we do the best that we can, we never know what miracle is wrought in our life, or in the life of another.
Helen Keller
There is no king who has not had a slave among his ancestors, and no slave who has not had a king among his.
Helen Keller
One must envision the higher life and behave as if it were a fact before it can unfold.
Helen Keller
One can never consent to creep when one feels an impulse to soar.
Helen Keller
The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse.
Helen Keller
Do not think of to-day's failures, but of the success that may come tomorrow.
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
No loss by flood and lightning, no destruction of cities and temples by the hostile forces of nature, has deprived man of so many noble lives and impulses as those which his intolerance has destroyed.
Helen Keller
Serious harm, I am afraid, has been wrought to our generation by fostering the idea that they would live secure in a permanent order of things.
Helen Keller
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
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
Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it. My optimism, then, does not rest on the absence of evil, but on a glad belief in the preponderance of good and a willing effort always to cooperate with the good, that it may prevail.
Helen Keller
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
Helen Keller
I look upon the whole world as my fatherland, and every war has to me the horror of a family feud.
Helen Keller
Life is to be lived as a magnificent adventure, or not at all.
Helen Keller
For my part, I wish, with Mr. Howells, that the literature of the past might be purged of all that is ugly and barbarous in it, although I should object as much as any one to having these great works weakened or falsified.
Helen Keller
