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

I read them in the intervals between study and play with an ever-deepening sense of pleasure. I did not study nor analyze them — I did not know whether they were well written or not; I never thought about style or authorship. They laid their treasures at my feet, and I accepted them as we accept the sunshine and the love of our friends.

It is wonderful how much time good people spend fighting the devil. If they would only expend the same energy loving each other, the devil would die in his own tracks of ennui.” — Helen Keller

The only lightless dark is the night of ignorance and insensibility. We differ, blind and seeing, one from another, not in our senses, but in the use we make of them, in the imagination and courage with which we seek wisdom beyond our senses.
