Another quote that won’t fit in Twitter. Here goes:

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

    I have not read any of her books, I saw The Miracle Worker in school a while back. From the Wikipedia page on her, I found some of her books. Out of the Dark seems interesting, and I’ve always wanted to read her autobiography… which I didn’t know she wrote when she was 22 in 1903, it kinda makes me wonder: so… what about the next 60 some years.
