More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

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
Do the things that interest you and do them with all your heart. Don't be concerned about whether people are watching you or criticizing you. The chances are that they aren't paying attention to you.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Courage is exhilarating.
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
There is in every country an antipathy to the foreigner.
Eleanor Roosevelt
experience should teach us that it is always the unexpected that does occur.
