More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
The most important word in the English language is hope.
Eleanor Roosevelt
So I took an interest in politics, but I don't know whether I enjoyed it! It was a wife's duty to be interested in whatever interested her husband, whether it was politics, books, or a particular dish for dinner.
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
Somewhere along the line of development we discover what we really are and then make our real decision for which we are responsible. Make that decision primarily for yourself because you can never really live anyone else's lie, not even your child's. The influence you exert is through your own life and what you become yourself.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I think if the people of this country can be reached with the truth, their judgment will be in favor of the many, as against the privileged few
Eleanor Roosevelt
Most women, I think, though they may complain a little about this, would agree that meeting the needs of others is not a real burden it is what makes life worth living. It is probably the deepest satisfaction a woman has.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
No leader can be too far ahead of his followers.
Eleanor Roosevelt
As life developed, I faced each problem as it came along. As my activities and work broadened and reached out, I never tried to shirk. I tried never to evade an issue. When I found I had something to do--I just did it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
If man is to be liberated to enjoy more leisure, he must also be prepared to enjoy this leisure fully and creatively.
Eleanor Roosevelt
There is not human being from whom we cannot learn something if we are interested enough to dig deep.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It isn't enough to talk about peace. One must believe in it. And it isn't enough to believe in it. One must work at it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
One of the best ways of enslaving a people is to keep them from education.
Eleanor Roosevelt
No one from the beginning of time has had security.
Eleanor Roosevelt
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by doing the thing which you think you cannot do.
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
Work is always an antidote to depression.
Eleanor Roosevelt
To undo a mistake is always harder than not to create one originally but we seldom have the foresight. Therefore we have no choice but to try to correct our past mistakes.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I never thought of achievement. I just did what came along for me to do - the thing that gave me the most pleasure.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Develop a skin as thick as a rhinoceros hide!
Eleanor Roosevelt
