Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.

- Helen Keller

As selfishness and complaint pervert the mind, so love with its joy clears and sharpens the vision.

- 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

We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world.

- Helen Keller

Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourses of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.

- Helen Keller

So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

- Helen Keller

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.

- Helen Keller

Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.

- Helen Keller

I seldom think about my limitations, and they never make me sad. Perhaps there is just a touch of yearning at times; but it is vague, like a breeze among flowers.

- Helen Keller

Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.

- Helen Keller

Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. The fearful are caught as often as the bold.

- Helen Keller

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart.

- Helen Keller

Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living.

- 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

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved.

- Helen Keller

Life is either a great adventure or nothing.

- Helen Keller

The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.

- Helen Keller

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

- Helen Keller

Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.

- Helen Keller

Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.
