H is for Heart



"The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the HEART." ~ Helen Keller

After I decided to use the Helen Keller quote for today's post I came upon this quote that fit so well with the idea that I had to use it too. Nothing wrong with two quotes, right? :)

"And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the HEART that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.” ~ Antoine de Saint-ExupĂ©ry, The Little Prince

I don't have anything to add, except that when I was younger I'm not sure I would have agreed with or understood these quotes. Now I see the wisdom of both.

  7. This is just my personal bias, but I think that's why we make better writers as we get older and have a little experience to base our characters on.

  11. These are both wonderful quotes that really ring true. My mom told me that Helen Keller was a guest speaker at her high school. It was a truly unforgettable experience.
