Helen Keller









Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of the overcoming of it.
Helen Keller




I didn't even want to add any comments to this quote. However, for those of you who don't know who Helen Keller is, I have to say she was a very special person. Very soon in her life she became deaf and blind and she overcame it as no one.

See this link at Helen Keller International for a very short account of her life:

or read excerpts of the book "The Story of My Life" available at Google Books and from where I took the above picture of her at the age of seven:
