Eleanor Roosevelt!

I was bored so I looked up "eleanor roosevelt quotes" in google. I admire that woman so much for who she was, what she did, and most of all her character. She was just plain amazing. Here's a taste of her wisdom:

"I have spent many years of my life in opposition, and I rather like the role."

"What you don't do can be a destructive force"

"Women are like teabags. We don't know our true strength until we are in hot water!"

"You must do the thing you think you cannot do"

"Never allow a person to tell you no who doesn't have the power to say yes"

"We are afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care at all"

"Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product"

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams"
