Life is to be lived as a magnificent adventure, or not at all.

THE most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The highest result of educati...

The highest result of education is tolerance. Long ago men fought and died for their faith; but it took ages to teach them the other kind of courage, - the courage to recognize the faiths of their brethren and their rights of conscience.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The best educated human being...

The best educated human being is the one who understands most about the life in which he is placed.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I, for one, love strength, daring, fortitude. I do not want people to kill the fight in them; I want them to fight for right things.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Tolerance is the first princi...

Tolerance is the first principle of community; it is the spirit which conserves the best that all men think.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Happiness calls out responsiv...

Happiness calls out responsive gladness in others. There is enough sadness in the world without yours ... never doubt the excellence and permanence of what is yet to be. Join the great company of those who make the barren places of life fruitful with kindness.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I trust, and I recognize the ...

I trust, and I recognize the beneficence of the power which we all worship as supreme- Order, Fate, the Great Spirit, Nature, God. I recognize this power in the sun that makes all things grow and keeps life afoot. I make a friend of this indefinable force…this is my religion of optimism.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Be not dumb, obedient slaves ...

Be not dumb, obedient slaves in an army of destruction. Be heroes in an army of construction.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I am not a perfect being. . ....

I am not a perfect being. . . . I have more faults than I know what to do with. I have a naughty temper. I am stubborn, impatient of hindrances and of stupidity. I have not in the truest sense a Christian spirit. I am naturally a fighter. I am lazy. I put off till tomorrow what I might better do today. I do not feel that I have been compensated for the two senses I lack. I have worked hard for all the senses I have got, and always I beg for more.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Children who hear acquire lan...

Children who hear acquire language without any particular effort; the words that fall from others' lips they catch on the wing, as it were, delightedly, while the little deaf child must trap them by a slow and often painful process. But whatever the process, the result is wonderful. Gradually from naming an object we advance step by step until we have traversed the vast distance between our first stammered syllable and the sweep of thought in a line of Shakespeare.

Be not dismayed; in the future lies the Promised Land.

If we do not like our work, and do not try to get happiness out of it, we are a menace to our profession as well as to ourselves.

The worst thing is to be born sighted but to lack vision.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The few own the many because ...

The few own the many because they possess the means of livelihood of all ... The country is governed for the richest, for the corporations, the bankers, the land speculators, and for the exploiters of labor. The majority of mankind are working people. So long as their fair demands - the ownership and control of their livelihoods - are set at naught, we can have neither men's rights nor women's rights. The majority of mankind is ground down by industrial oppression in order that the small remnant may live in ease.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

It gives me a deep comforting sense that Things seen are temporal and things unseen are eternal.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I have found out that though the ways in which I can make myself useful are few, yet the work open to me is endless.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The most important day I reme...

The most important day I remember in all my life is the one on which my teacher, Anne Mansfield Sullivan, came to me. I am filled with wonder when I consider the immeasurable contrasts between the two lives which it connects. It was the third of March, 1887, three months before I was seven years old.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

This world is so full of care...

This world is so full of care and sorrow that it is a gracious debt we owe to one another to discover the bright crystals of delight hidden in somber circumstances and irksome tasks.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Now I feel as if I should succeed in doing something in mathematics, although I cannot see why it is so very important. . . The knowledge doesn't make life any sweeter or happier, does it?
