Quotes for the end of the day...

Finally, here are some quotes from one of my favourite personality: Helen Keller

"Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. Security 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 exposure."

"Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experience of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, ambition inspired, and success achieved."

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

"Security is mostly a superstition. It does not exist in nature.... Life is either a daring adventure or nothing."

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us."

"Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything good in the world."

"No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed an uncharted land, or opened a new doorway for the human spirit."

"Never bend your head. Hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye."

"Many persons have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification but through fidelity to a worthy purpose."
