"The poets have taught us how full of wonders is the night; and the night of blindness has its wonders, too. The only lightless dark is the night of ignorance and insensibility.

Quote_1.png
Helen Keller
"Certainly I believe that God gave us life for happiness, not misery. Humanity, I am sure, will never be made lazy or indifferent by an excess of happiness.

Happiness should be a means of accomplishment, like health, not an end in itself."
