You get strength and courage, when you stop to look fear in the face.
Eleanor Roosevelt
It has been a long fight to put the control of our economic system in the hands of the government.
Eleanor Roosevelt
Anyone who knows history, particularly the history of Europe, will, I think, recognize that the domination of education or of government by any one particular religious faith is never a happy arrangement for the people.
Eleanor Roosevelt
