More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
This living in a democracy is a problem, isn't it?
Eleanor Roosevelt
Once your children are grown up and have children of their own, the problems are theirs and the less the older generation interferes the better.

One of the first things we must get rid of is the idea that democracy is tantamount to capitalism.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Success in marriage depends on being able, when you get over being in love, to really love....You never know anyone until you marry them.

Eleanor Roosevelt
