All the world is full of suffering. It is also full of overcoming.
Helen Keller

Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.

Helen Keller

Instead of comparing our lot with that of those who are more fortunate than we are, we should compare it with the lot of the great majority of our fellow men. It then appears that we are among the privileged.
Helen Keller

It is a terrible thing to see and have no vision.
Helen Keller
