More quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
It seems to me that I cannot afford, as a self-respecting individual, to refuse to do a thing merely because it will make me disliked or bring down a storm of criticism on my head.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Since everybody is an individual, nobody can be you. You are unique. No one can tell you how to use your time. It is yours. Your life is your own. You mold it. You make it.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Life must be lived and curiosity kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Great leaders inspire people to have confidence in themselves.
Eleanor Roosevelt

Eleanor Roosevelt
People who 'view with alarm' never build anything.

Eleanor Roosevelt
I could never say in the morning, I have a headache and cannot do thus and so. Headache or no headache, thus and so had to be done.
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
You can often change your circumstances by changing your attitude
Eleanor Roosevelt
Each of us has... all the time there is. Those years, weeks, hours, are the sands in the glass running swiftly away. To let them drift through our fingers is tragic waste. To use them to the hilt, making them count for something, is the beginning of wisdom.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Everybody wants something.
Eleanor Roosevelt
The most important word in the English language is hope.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Do one thing every day that scares you.
Eleanor Roosevelt
I have never believed that war settled anything satisfactorily, but I am not entirely sure that some times there are certain situations in the world such as we have in actuality when a country is worse off when it does not go to war for its principles than if it went to war.
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
Love can often be misguided and do as much harm as good, but respect can do only good. It assumes that the other person's stature is as large as one's own, his rights as reasonable, his needs as important.
Eleanor Roosevelt
