More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt
What we must learn to do is to create unbreakable bonds between the sciences and the humanities. We cannot procrastinate. The world of the future is in our making. Tomorrow is now.
Eleanor Roosevelt
You do the things that need to be done according to priority.
Eleanor Roosevelt
One of the best ways of enslaving a people is to keep them from education... The second way of enslaving a people is to suppress the sources of information, not only by burning books but by controlling all the other ways in which ideas are transmitted.
Eleanor Roosevelt
...real prosperity can only come when everybody prospers.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
If we do not pay for children in good schools, then we are going to pay for them in prisons and mental hospitals.
Eleanor Roosevelt
...conservation of land and conservation of people frequently go hand in hand.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do not stop thinking of life as an adventure. You have no security unless you can live bravely, excitingly, imaginatively unless you can choose a challenge instead of competence.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart
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
One thing life has taught me: if you are interested, you never have to look for new interests. They come to you. When you are genuinely interested in one thing, it will always lead to something else.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Furnish an example, stop preaching, stop shielding, don't prevent self-reliance and initiative, allow your children to develop along thier own lines.
Eleanor Roosevelt
To most teenagers, life is a strange uncharted land filled with a mixture of new joys, intensely felt, and painful confusions for which they know no anodyne.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I can not believe that war is the best solution. No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Some people are going to leave a mark on this world, while others will leave a stain.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Those of us who believe in the right of any human being to belong to whatever church he sees fit, and to worship God in his own way, cannot be accused of prejudice when we do not want to see public education connected with religious control of the schools, which are paid for by taxpayers' money.
Eleanor Roosevelt
