Helen Keller
Image
The things you do today that you don't have to do will determine who, what, and where you will be when it is too late to do anything about the things you should have done.
Helen Keller
Image
Our worst foes are not belligerent circumstances, but wavering spirits.
Helen Keller
Image
Few pleasures there are indeed without an aftertouch of pain, but that is the preservation which keeps them sweet.
Helen Keller
Image
I look upon the whole world as my fatherland, and every war has to me the horror of a family feud.

Helen Keller
Image
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.
Helen Keller
Image
I can see, and that is why I can be happy, in what you call the dark, but which to me is golden. I can see a God-made world, not a manmade world.
Helen Keller
Image
Smell is a potent wizard that transports you across thousands of miles and all the years you have lived.
Helen Keller
Image
My optimism is grounded in two worlds, myself and what is about me. I demand that the world be good, and lo, it obeys. I proclaim the world good, and facts range themselves to prove my proclamation overwhelmingly true.
Helen Keller
Image
All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
Helen Keller
Image
Silver is purified in fire and so are we. It is in the most trying times that our real character is shaped and revealed.
Helen Keller
Image
I do not remember a time since I have been capable of loving books that I have not loved Shakespeare.
Helen Keller
Image
The best educated human being is the one who understands most about the life in which he is placed.
Helen Keller
Image
Be not dismayed in the future lies the Promised Land.
Helen Keller
Image
Certainly it is one of our sweetest experiences that when we are touched by some noble affection or pure joy, we remember the dead most tenderly, and feel more powerfully drawn to them.
