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
We don't become heroes overnight. - One step at a time, eventually discovering we have the strength to stare it down.
Eleanor Roosevelt
If you lose money you lose much, If you lose friends you lose more, If you lose faith you lose all.
Eleanor Roosevelt
No, I have never wanted to be a man. I have often wanted to be more effective as a woman, but I have never felt that trousers would do the trick!
Eleanor Roosevelt
No man is defeated without until he has first been defeated within.
Eleanor Roosevelt
