Life Is About Choices
“One’s philosophy is not best expressed in words; it is expressed in the choices one makes. In the long run, we shape our lives and we shape ourselves. The process never ends until we die. And, the choices we make are ultimately our own responsibility.”
–Eleanor Roosevelt (American Diplomat, First Lady and Humanitarian, 1884-1962)
Gaining Strength, Courage and Confidence
“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, “I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.” . . . You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”
–Eleanor Roosevelt (American Diplomat, First Lady and Humanitarian, 1884-1962)
You Learn by Living
Play Your Part in Life
“I could not, at any age, be content to take my place by the fireside and simply look on. Life was meant to be lived. Curiosity must be kept alive. One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.”
–Eleanor Roosevelt (American Diplomat, First Lady and Humanitarian, 1884-1962)
