There is plenty of courage among us for the abstract, but not for the concrete.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The one resolution, which was...

The one resolution, which was in my mind long before it took the form of a resolution, is the key-note of my life. It is this, always to regard as mere impertinences of fate the handicaps which were placed upon my life almost at the beginning. I resolved that they should not crush or dwarf my soul, but rather be made to blossom, like Aaron's rod, with flowers.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Believe, when you are most unhappy, that there is something for you to do in the world. So long as you can sweeten another's pain, life is not in vain.

I believe war is the inevitable fruit of our economic system.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

When one door closes, another...

When one door closes, another one opens, but sometimes we wait too long looking at the closed door, and never realize that another door has been opened.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

When it seems that our sorrow...

When it seems that our sorrow is too great to be borne, let us think of the great family of the heavy-hearted into which our grief has given us entrance. And inevitably, we will feel about us their arms, their sympathy and their understanding.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The joy of surmounting obstacles which once seemed unremovable, and pushing the frontier of accomplishment further — what joy is there like unto it?

The only real blind person at Christmas time is he who has not Christmas in his heart.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

We bereaved are not alone. We...

We bereaved are not alone. We belong to the largest company in all the world--the company of those who have known suffering.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

It is a mistake always to contemplate the good and ignore the evil, because by making people neglectful it lets in disaster.
There is a dangerous optimism of ignorance and indifference.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Masculine exhalations are, as...

Masculine exhalations are, as a rule, stronger, more vivid,more widely differentiated than those of women. In the odor of young men there is something elemental, as of fire, storm, and salt sea. It pulsates with buoyancy and desire. It suggests all the things strong and beautiful and joyous and gives me a sense of physical happiness.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Poverty is the fundamental ca...

Poverty is the fundamental cause of most of the physical, moral and economic ills of humanity.

Touch each object as if tomorrow you would never be able to feel anything again.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The chief handicap of the blind is not blindness, but the attitude of seeing people towards them.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

When one comes to think of it...

When one comes to think of it, there are no such things as divine, immutable, or inalienable rights. Rights are things we get when we are strong enough to make good our claim on them.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The best things in life are n...

The best things in life are not seen or heard ... but felt with the heart.

A simple, childlike faith in a Divine Friend solves all the problems that come to us by land or sea

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I found that of the senses, the eye is the most superficial, the ear the most arrogant, smell the most voluptuous, taste the most superstitious and fickle, touch the most profound and the most philosophical.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

Strike against war, for witho...

Strike against war, for without you no battles can be fought. Strike against manufacturing shrapnel and gas bombs and all other tools of murder. Strike against preparedness that means death and misery to millions of human beings. Be not dumb, obedient slaves in an army of destruction. Be heroes in an army of construction.
