Helen Keller

One cannot consent to creep when one has an impulse to soar.
Keep your face to the sunshine and all the shadows will fall behind you.
Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
My share of the work may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious.
Truly each new book is as a ship that bears us away from the fixity of our limitations into the movement and splendor of life's infinite ocean.
