Smells are the fallen angels of the senses.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

If we spend the time we waste ...

If we spend the time we waste in sighing for the perfect golden fruit in fulfilling the conditions of its growth, happiness will come, must come. It is guaranteed in the very laws of the universe. If it involves some chastening and renunciation, well, the fruit will be all the sweeter for this touch of holiness.

Christmas Day is the festival of optimism.

I, who cannot see, find hundre...

I, who cannot see, find hundreds of things to interest me through mere touch. I feel the delicate symmetry of a leaf. I pass my hands lovingly about the smooth skin of a silver birch, or the rough shaggy bark of a pine.... Yet, those who have eyes apparently see little. The panorama of color and action which fills the world is taken for granted.... It is a great pity that, in the world of light, the gift of sight is used only as a mere convenience rather than as a means of adding fullness to life.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

The hilltop hour would not be ...

The hilltop hour would not be half so wonderful if there were no dark valleys to traverse.

The highest thinkers of the ages, the seers of the tribes and the nations, have been optimists.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

They took away what should have been my eyes (but I remembered Milton's Paradise). They took away what should have been my ears, (Beethoven came and wiped away my tears) They took away what should have been my tongue, (but I had talked with god when I was young) He would not let them take away my soul, possessing that I still possess the whole.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I learned that it is possible for us to create light, sound and order within us no matter what calamity befall us in the outer world.

Often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one that has been opened for us.

Happiness is attained through fidelity to a worthy purpose.

When we do the best we can, we never know what miracles await.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

I have an unshakable belief that mankind's higher nature is on the whole still dormant. The greatest souls reveal excellencies of mind and heart which their lesser fellows possess-hidden, it is true, but there all the same.

Poetry is the gate through which I enter the land of enchantment. Once inside the flaming wall, my limitations fall from me, and my spirit is free.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

When you lose your vision, you lose contact with things. When you lose your hearing, you lose contact with people.

Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet.

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

Happiness is the final and perfect fruit of obedience to the laws of life.

Helen Keller 569 quotes

There is in the blind as in the seeing an Absolute which gives truth to what we know to be true, order to what is orderly, beauty to the beautiful, touchableness to what is tangible.

The joy of surmounting obstacles that once seemed unremovable and pushing the frontier of accomplishment further-what other joy is there like it?
