Eleanor Roosevelt Quotations

One of my favorite quotations by Eleanor Roosevelt is: "Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product." Here are some more:

Courage
I believe that anyone can conquer fear by doing the things he fears to do.

Character
It is not fair to ask of others what you are unwilling to do yourself.

Decision Making
It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.

Character
People grow through experience if they meet life honestly and courageously. This is how character is built.

Destiny
The purpose of life, after all, is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experiences.

Attitude
We must want for others, not ourselves alone.

Beginning
With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts.

Courage
You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.

Action
You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
