More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It seems to me that it is the basic right of any human being to work.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Love can often be misguided and do as much harm as good, but respect can do only good. It assumes that the other person's stature is as large as one's own, his rights as reasonable, his needs as important.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The most important word in the English language is hope.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I never met Mahatma Gandhi, but, I think everyone felt they knew him even if they hadn't met him.
Eleanor Roosevelt
How can we be such fools as to go on senselessly taking human life in this way? Why the women in every nation do not rise up and refuse to bring children into a world of this kind is beyond my understanding.
Eleanor Roosevelt
People who 'view with alarm' never build anything.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do what you feel in your heart to be right - for you'll be criticized anyway. You'll be damned if you do, and damned if you don't.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That is why it is called the present.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry is own weight, this is a frightening prospect.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Poverty is an expensive luxury. We cannot afford it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
the term 'young adults' which is so often used today seems to me a misnomer, and one which, if taken seriously, may lead the adolescent into misunderstanding as to his nature and his role in life. 'Young he is 'adult' he is not.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It is very difficult to have a free, fair and honest press anywhere in the world. In the first place, as a rule, papers are largely supported by advertising, and that immediately gives the advertisers a certain hold over the medium they use.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I could never say in the morning, I have a headache and cannot do thus and so. Headache or no headache, thus and so had to be done.
Eleanor Roosevelt
At any age it does us no harm to look over our past shortcomings and plan to improve our characters and actions in the coming year.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Every time you meet a situation you think at the time it is an impossibility and you go through the tortures of the damned, once you have met it and lived through it, you find that forever after you are freer than you were before.
Eleanor Roosevelt
You do the things that need to be done according to priority.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The constant pressure to bring about conformity is a dangerous thing.
Eleanor Roosevelt
A trait no other nation seems to possess in quite the same degree as we do namely, a feeling of almost childish injury and resentment unless the world as a whole recognizes how innocent we are of anything but the most generous and harmless intentions
Eleanor Roosevelt
