More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
...without equality there can be no democracy.
Eleanor Roosevelt
True patriotism springs from a belief in the dignity of the individual, freedom and equality not only for Americans but for all people on earth, universal brotherhood and good will, and a constant and earnest striving toward the principles and ideals on which this country was founded.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Curiosity must be kept alive.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I don't know much about Capitalism, but I do know about Democracy and freedom, and if Capitalism may change in many, many ways, I'm not really very much interested in Capitalism.
Eleanor Roosevelt
There is in every country an antipathy to the foreigner.
Eleanor Roosevelt
We need our radicals.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I shall either find a way, or make one (attributed)
Eleanor Roosevelt
Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry is own weight, this is a frightening prospect.
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
...real prosperity can only come when everybody prospers.
Eleanor Roosevelt
One thing is for sure-none of the arts flourishes on censorship and repression. And by this time it should be evident that the American public is capable of doing its own censoring.
Eleanor Roosevelt
When it's better for everyone, it's better for everyone.
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
The most important thing in any relationship is not what you get but what you give.... In any case, the giving of love is an education in itself.
Eleanor Roosevelt
A great deal of fear is a result of just “not knowing.” We do not know what is involved in a new situation. We do not know whether we can deal with it. The sooner we learn what it entails, the sooner we can dissolve our fear.
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
Remember, no one can make you feel inferior without being related to you and repeatedly questioning why you're in nonprofit.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It is a rather curious thing to have to divide one's life into personal and official compartments and temporarily put the personal side into its hidden compartment to be taken out again when one's official duties are at an end.
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.
Eleanor Roosevelt
At any age it does us no harm to look over our past shortcomings and plan to improve our characters and actions in the coming year.
Eleanor Roosevelt
