• You wouldn't worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• It takes courage to love, but pain through love is the purifying fire which those who love generously know. We all know people who are so much afraid of pain that they shut themselves up like clams in a shell and, giving out nothing, receive nothing and therefore shrink until life is a mere living death.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only true friends will leave footprints in your heart.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.

• No matter how plain a woman may be, if truth and honesty are written across her face, she will be beautiful.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt

• If someone betrays you once, it’s their fault; if they betray you twice, it’s your fault.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Beautiful young people are accidents of nature, but beautiful old people are works of art.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Life was meant to be lived, and curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• To handle yourself, use your head; to handle others, use your heart.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt

  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Life is what you make it. Always has been, always will be.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.
  — 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
• What could we accomplish if we knew we could not fail?
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Once I had a rose named after me and I was very flattered. But I was not pleased to read the description in the catalogue: No good in a bed, but fine up against a wall.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• A mature person is one who does not think only in absolutes, who is able to be objective even when deeply stirred emotionally, who has learned that there is both good and bad in all people and in all things, and who walks humbly and deals charitably with the circumstances of life, knowing that in this world no one is all knowing and therefore all of us need both love and charity.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• You have to accept whatever comes, and the only important thing is that you meet it with the best you have to give.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt

  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Happiness is not a goal...it's a by-product of a life well lived.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Friendship with oneself is all important, because without it one cannot be friends with anyone else in the world.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Never mistake knowledge for wisdom. One helps you make a living; the other helps you make a life.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• No one won the last war, and no one will win the next war.
  — 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
• Work is always an antidote to depression.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• I think, at a child's birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift would be curiosity.
  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Confidence comes not from always being right but from not fearing to be wrong.

  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• When will our consciences grow so tender that we will act to prevent human misery rather than avenge it?
  — Eleanor Roosevelt

  — Eleanor Roosevelt
• Remember always that you have not only the right to be an individual; you have an obligation to be one. You cannot make any useful contribution in life unless you do this.
