الطبيعة ليست دئما هادئة .. بل هى متقلبة وشرسة احيانا - Helen Keller

So imagination crowns the experience of my hands. And they learned their cunning from the wise hand of another, which, itself guided by imagination, led me safely in paths that I knew not, made darkness light before me, and made crooked ways straight.

"My teacher read me "The Chambered Nautilus" [a nature poem], and showed me that the shell-building process of the mollusks is symbolical of the development of the mind. Just as the wonder-working mantle of the nautilus changes the material it absorbs from the water and makes it a part of itself, so the bits of knowledge one gathers undergo a similar change and become pearls of thought."

Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.
