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
No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
Eleanor Roosevelt
When it's better for everyone, it's better for everyone.

Eleanor Roosevelt
If you approach each new person you meet in a spirit of adventure, you will find yourself endlessly fascinated by the new channels of thought and experience and personality that you encounter.
Eleanor Roosevelt
When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?
Eleanor Roosevelt
