 Literature is my utopia

 Literature is my Utopia. Here I am not disenfranchised. No barrier of the senses shuts me out from the sweet, gracious discourses of my book friends. They talk to me without embarrassment or awkwardness.

 Love is like a beautiful flower which I may not touch, but whose fragrance makes the garden a place of delight just the same

 Many people know so little about what is beyond their short range of experience. They look within themselves - and find nothing! Therefore they conclude that there is nothing outside themselves either.

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

 Museums and art stores are also sources of pleasure and inspiration. Doubtless it will seem strange to many that the hand unaided by sight can feel action, sentiment, beauty in the cold marble; and yet it is true that I derive genuine pleasure from touching great works of art. As my finger tips trace line and curve, they discover the thought and emotion which the artist has portrayed.

 My darkness has been filled with the light of intelligence, and behold, the outer day-lit world was stumbling and groping in social blindness

 My share of the work may be limited, but the fact that it is work makes it precious.

 Nenhum pessimista descobriu os segredos das estrelas,
navegou para uma terra desconhecida,
ou abriu um novo céu para o espírito humano.

 Never bend your head. Always hold it high. Look the world straight in the eye.

 No loss by flood and lightening, no destruction of cities and temples by the hostile forces of nature, has deprived man of so many noble lives and impulses as those which his intolerance has destroyed

 No matter how dull, or how mean, or how wise a man is, he feels that happiness is his indisputable right.

 No one has a right to consume happiness without producing it.

 No pessimist ever discovered the secret of the stars or sailed to an uncharted land or opened a new heaven to the human spirit.

 Not the senses I have but what I do with them is my kingdom.
