More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
All of life is a constant education.

Eleanor Roosevelt
On the whole our armed services have been doing pretty well in the way of keeping us defended, but I hope our State Department will remember that it is really the department of achieving peace.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do one thing everyday that scares you. Those small things that make us uncomfortable help us build courage to do the work we do.
Eleanor Roosevelt
In the long run, we shape our lives, and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Caring comes from being able to put yourself in the position of the other person.
Eleanor Roosevelt
