Excerpt from The Girl Who Found, the Blue Bird: A Visit to Helen Keller

Though I lived for centuries, I should not forget a colour, a shade, a line, nor any single detail of the thousand that form the memory of my visits to Helen Keller, the celebrated deaf, dumb and blind American girl.

We are always making fresh acquaintances; we look upon it as a natural, everyday occurrence. We go to meet an unknown person with less emotion than we feel when visiting for the first time a country or a cathedral; and yet it is often for us the preface to a great event.
