More quotes by Helen Keller
Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.
Helen Keller
Some people are foolish enough to imagine that wealth and power and fame satisfy our hearts: but they never do, unless they are used to create and distribute happiness in the world.
Helen Keller
The living word awakened my soul, gave it light, hope, joy, set it free!
Helen Keller
He who marries the spirit of the age soon becomes a widower.
Helen Keller
A well-educated mind will always have more questions than answers.
Helen Keller
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.
Helen Keller
I fall, I stand still... I trudge on. I gain a little... I get more eager and climb higher and begin to see the widening horizon. Every struggle is a victory.
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
Your success and happiness lies in you. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulties.
Helen Keller
Worse than being blind would be to be able to see but not have any vision.
Helen Keller
Life is a daring adventure or nothing.
Helen Keller
Many persons have a wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose.
Helen Keller
The world is sown with good but unless I turn my glad thoughts into practical living and till my own field. I cannot reap a kernel of the good.
Helen Keller
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
I don't want to live in a hand -me -down world of others' experiences. I want to write about me, my discoveries, my fears, my feelings, about me.
Helen Keller
Touch each object as if tomorrow you would never be able to feel anything again.
Helen Keller
A simple, childlike faith in a Divine Friend solves all the problems that come to us by land or sea
Helen Keller
I could never stay long enough on the shore the tang of the untainted, fresh, and free sea air was like a cool, quieting thought.
Helen Keller
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
Your success and happiness lie in you. External conditions are the accidents of life, its outer trappings. The great, enduring realities are love of service. Joy is the holy fire that keeps our purpose warm and our intelligence aglow. Resolve to keep happy, and your joy and you shall form an invincible host against difficulty.
Helen Keller
