More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
All wars eventually act as boomerangs and the victor suffers as much as the vanquished.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I used to tell my husband that, if he could make me 'understand' something, it would be clear to all the other people in the country.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Caring comes from being able to put yourself in the position of the other person.
Eleanor Roosevelt
A good leader inspires people to have confidence in the leader, a great leader inspires people to have confidence in themselves.
Eleanor Roosevelt
what we need in the world is manners ... I think that if, instead of preaching brotherly love, we preached good manners, we might get a little further. It sounds less righteous and more practical.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Human resources are the most valuable assets the world has. They are all needed desperately.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Some people are going to leave a mark on this world, while others will leave a stain.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The choices we make are ultimately our responsibility.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Power corrupts. Knowledge is power. Study hard. Be evil.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Perhaps the basic thing which contributes to charm is the ability to forget oneself and be engrossed in other people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I have never believed that war settled anything satisfactorily, but I am not entirely sure that some times there are certain situations in the world such as we have in actuality when a country is worse off when it does not go to war for its principles than if it went to war.
Eleanor Roosevelt
If we fail to meet our problems here, no one else in the world will do so. If we fail, the heart goes out of progressives throughout the world.
Eleanor Roosevelt
You [future first ladies] will feel that you are no longer clothing yourself, you are dressing a public monument.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Poverty is an expensive luxury. We cannot afford it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
You do the things that need to be done according to priority.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Remember always that you have not only the right to be an individual you have an obligation to be one.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It seems to me that I cannot afford, as a self-respecting individual, to refuse to do a thing merely because it will make me disliked or bring down a storm of criticism on my head.
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
Today is the oldest you've ever been, and the youngest you'll ever be again.
Eleanor Roosevelt
What one has to do usually can be done.
Eleanor Roosevelt
