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.
Helen Keller

Once I knew only darkness and stillness... my life was without past or future... but a little word from the fingers of another fell into my hand that clutched at emptiness, and my heart leaped to the rapture of living.
Helen Keller

You realise she didn't write a word of that, right?

I'm not sure what you mean, write, as in physically or are you saying she plagarised it?

I did a search, so it seems she did write that stuff. Meh, i'll stick to my own amusing view of her - it's funnier that way.

UGUGHHghghHgh HELEN!! RrrRrIBALLAH!

Science may have found a cure for most evils; but it has found no remedy for the worst of them all - the apathy of human beings.

Perhaps this may make you have some compassion for her.

Darkness imprisoning me
All that I see
Absolute horror
I cannot live
I cannot die
Trapped in myself
Body my holding cell

Landmine has taken my sight
Taken my speech
Taken my hearing
Taken my arms
Taken my legs
Taken my soul
Left me with life in hell

Helen Keller wasn't a fictional victim of a landmine with no arms/legs/face ...

However, if she picked up a guitar and played that song then i'd be right up there \m/ \m/.

Helen and the Lords of the Underworld.

When she was nineteen months old she contracted scarlet fever and it left her in the same state as the landmine victim. Yes she still had her limbs.

uh no, she could walk and express herself and y'know ... pick things up. The fictional landmine victim was, as depicted in the movie the song was based on, a slab of meat with a head and conciousness and no way of communicating.

What a compassionate God to instill that on people, fictional or no.

Oh and please don't use Einstein quotes in a pro-religious fashion. He was very much not religious (as various church groups at the time knew and dissaproved of).

Its only a matter of time before a thread about god turns into a cage fight with Helen Keller & Einstein vs Metallica.

As literary as Helen Keller may have become in her later years I firmly believe she would have had problems with tapping and tremelo techniques.

Her outbursts could have made her a great drummer though.

I havn't used Einstein quotes in a pro religious fashion at all. As I repeatedly say I am not a church goer and I don't believe in god.

Helen Keller was very much a slab of meat until she learnt language and the second quote above was suppose to convey that fact.

Metallica are self-defeating.

Einstein and Helen Keller just need to sit back and watch the show.

Or not, in Helen's case...

That makes me feel jealous. Of Helen Keller. Because she would never have been able to hear the guitar solo that Kirk Hammett plays after those lyrics.
