More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
Most women, I think, though they may complain a little about this, would agree that meeting the needs of others is not a real burden it is what makes life worth living. It is probably the deepest satisfaction a woman has.
Eleanor Roosevelt
For our own success to be real, it must contribute to the success of others.
Eleanor Roosevelt
How hard it is to project oneself into the future. We are always prone to think of the conditions which are with us today as being permanent conditions.
Eleanor Roosevelt
All of life is a constant education.
Eleanor Roosevelt

We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I have a great objection to seeing anyone, particularly anyone whom I care about, lose his self-control.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
To undo a mistake is always harder than not to create one originally but we seldom have the foresight. Therefore we have no choice but to try to correct our past mistakes.
Eleanor Roosevelt
To tell the people in the West not to use their cars means that these people may never see another soul for weeks and weeks nor have a way of getting a sick person to a doctor.
Eleanor Roosevelt
One of the first things we must get rid of is the idea that democracy is tantamount to capitalism.
Eleanor Roosevelt
When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?
Eleanor Roosevelt
Anger is one letter short of danger.
Eleanor Roosevelt
What we apparently have failed to grasp is that, in this new world in which we live, the collective hunger of great masses of people, wherever they may be, will affect our long-range welfare, just as though they were our own people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
There is not human being from whom we cannot learn something if we are interested enough to dig deep.
Eleanor Roosevelt
We gain strength, and courage, and confidence by each experience in which we really stop to look fear in the face... we must do that which we think we cannot.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Education is the cornerstone of liberty.
Eleanor Roosevelt
