About This Quote
Only with grace, can we reach the goal. This is a quote said by Helen Keller. She was blind and deaf but she learned how to read and write, became an activist and she founded an organization for the deaf and blind. But her real legacy is her courage to live life not as others expected of her, but as she thought it should be.
She was an inspiration to many people who saw her as a role model because she was different from what society expected from a woman or a blind person. Today, we can say that this quote is even stronger today since people take every chance they have to show kindness to others.
