I love the Helen Keller story.
Quotes from 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.
Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.
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.
One can never consent to creep
when one feels an impulse to soar.
What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.
Your success and happiness lies in you.
Resolve to keep happy,
and your joy and you
shall form an invincible host against difficulties.
The best and most beautiful things in the world
cannot be seen or even touched...
they must be felt with the heart.
