Eleanor Roosevelt
a society in which there is widespread economic insecurity can turn freedom into a barren and vapid right for millions of people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I think that somehow, we learn who we really are and then live with that decision.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Eleanor Roosevelt
What you don't do can be a destructive force.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Somehow we must be able to show people that democracy is not about words, but action.
