"Many persons have the wrong idea of what constitutes true happiness. It is not attained through self-gratification, but through fidelity to a worthy purpose."

                              --Helen Keller 

Hat tip: Criminal Minds. Hotch spoke this quote at the end of Season 5, Episode 19, "Rite of Passage"

=========================================

The quote rendered in Robert Shetterly's beautiful portrait of Helen Keller reads as follows:

"When one comes to think of it, there are no such things as divine, immutable, or inalienable rights. Rights are things we get when we are strong enough to make good our claim on them."

My favorite Helen Keller quote:

"The aim of education is tolerance."
