About This Quote

One of the most famous quotes by Helen Keller. She was a deaf and blind woman. She learned to read and write with the help of her teacher, Anne Sullivan. Helen Keller was born in Alabama in 1880.

At one time she could not see but she could move her fingers and lips. And, at no time did she need physical assistance to perform basic functions like eating, drinking, walking, standing, sitting, or crawling. She was independent despite her disability.

Throughout her life she defied all odds to achieve independence for herself and others like her.
