"There never has been security. No man..." - Quote by Eleanor Roosevelt

“Choose a challenge instead of competence”

“Since you get more joy out of giving joy to others, you should put a good deal of thought into the happiness that you are able to give.”

“To be a citizen in a democracy, a human being must be given a healthy start.”

“You must learn to stop thinking in terms of beginnings and endings, successes and failures, and begin to treat everything in your life as a learning experience instead of a proving one.”

“The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives.”

“What greater delight and wonder can there be than to leave the straight lines of personality and deviate into these footpaths that lead beneath brambles and thick tree trunks into the heart of the forest where live those wild beasts, our fellow men? That is true: to escape is the greatest of pleasures; street haunting in winter the greatest of adventures.”

“if a woman doubts as to whether she should accept a man or not, she certainly ought to refuse him. If she can hesitate as to `Yes,' she ought to say `No' directly. It is not a state to be safely entered into with doubtful feelings, with half a heart.”

“Prediction is difficult- particularly when it involves the future.”

“But since the affairs of men rests still incertain,Let's reason with the worst that may befall.”
