The worst thing in the world is not to be born blind, but to be born with sight, and yet have no vision.

What we have once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love deeply becomes a part of us.

The most pathetic person in the world is someone who has sight, but has no vision.

To be blind is bad, but worse is to have eyes and not see.

I have an unshakable belief that mankind's higher nature is on the whole still dormant. The greatest souls reveal excellencies of mind and heart which their lesser fellows possess-hidden, it is true, but there all the same.

There is no better way to thank God for your sight than by giving a helping hand to someone in the dark.

Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light.
