Helen Keller
Image
When one reads hurriedly and nervously, having in mind written tests and examinations, one's brain becomes encumbered with a lot of bric-a-brac for which there seems to be little use.
Helen Keller
Image
Instead of being satisfied to alleviate suffering, we shall labor hard and continually to prevent it.
Helen Keller
Image
When you lose your vision, you lose contact with things. When you lose your hearing, you lose contact with people.
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
Happiness cannot come from without. It must come from within. It is not what we see and touch or that which others do for us which makes us happy it is that which we think and feel and do, first for the other fellow and then for ourselves.
Helen Keller
Image
My friends have made the story of my life. In a thousand ways they have turned my limitations into beautiful privileges.
Helen Keller

The best preparedness is the one that disarms the hostility of other nations and makes friends of them.
