Helen Adams Keller (June 27, 1880 – June 1, 1968) was an American author, political activist, and lecturer. She was the first deafblind person to earn a bachelor of arts degree. Let's see the great quotes of Helen Keller about life and character.
1. I cried because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet
2. Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see a shadow.
3. Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves – and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.
4. It is hard to interest those who have everything in those who have nothing.
5. 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.
6. 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.
7. The world is moved along, not only by the mighty shoves of its heroes, but also by the aggregate of tiny pushes of each honest worker.
8. The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched – they must be felt with the heart.
9. People do not like to think. If one thinks, one must reach conclusions. Conclusions are not always pleasant.
10. Life is an exciting business, and most exciting when it is lived for others.
11. Don’t cry because it’s over, smile because it happened
12. We may have found a cure for most evils; but we have found no remedy for the worst of them all, the apathy of human beings.
13. Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything wise in this world.
14. I long to accomplish a great and noble task, but it is my chief duty to accomplish small tasks as if they were great and noble.
15. No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars, or sailed to an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit.
16. What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.
17. Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and I learn, whatever state I may be in, therein to be content.
18. I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something that I can do.
19. What I am looking for is not out there, it is in me.
20. The highest result of education is tolerance.
21. Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.
22. It’s wonderful to climb the liquid mountains of the sky. Behind me and before me is God and I have no fears.
23. No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.
24. Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing.
25. So long as the memory of certain beloved friends lives in my heart, I shall say that life is good.

27. Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other’s welfare, social justice can never be attained.

33. We could never learn to be brave and patient, if there were only joy in the world.
34. Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.
