Description

"While terror and bloodshed reign in the land there can be no process of thought, no education going on, by which alone can a people be prepared for the enjoyment of national liberty"

AQS in pencil by Helen Keller on an off-white 10 x 7 cardstock sheet, signed and dated below, “Helen Keller, December 2nd 1933,” who writes, in full: “It is during periods of peace that nations become civilized. While terror and bloodshed reign in the land there can be no process of thought, no education going on, by which alone can a people be prepared for the enjoyment of national liberty.” In very fine condition. An unusually lengthy and thought-provoking quote from Helen Keller, who remains uncommon in this handwritten format.
