beware people! some have the "right person", but need to explain a bit more!

The original author did not "say" this quote.
However, Helen Keller did write it - more specifically, had it transcribed - into her autobiographical novel.

Helen Keller ~ blind & deaf American writer !!
Knowledge is power. Rather, knowledge is happiness, because to have knowledge - broad, deep knowledge - is to know true ends from false, and lofty things from low.
To know the thoughts and deeds that have marked man's progress is to feel the great heartthrobs of humanity through the centuries; and if one does not feel in these pulsations a heavenward striving, one must indeed be deaf to the harmonies of life.
