"This freedom of which men speak, for..." - Quote by Eleanor Roosevelt

“It is not fair to ask of others what you are not willing to do yourself.”

“Curiosity must be kept alive.”

“It is a brave thing to have courage to be an individual; it is also, perhaps, a lonely thing. But it is better than not being an individual, which is to be nobody at all.”

“No power on earth can resist the lovers of liberty who are ready not to kill opponents, but be killed by them.”

“While poverty persists, there is no true freedom.”

“Let fear be a counselor and not a jailer.”

“You can do better than this.” The best slogan I can think of to leave with the kids of the U.S.A. would be “We can . . . and we’ve got to . . . do better than this.”

“One who makes himself a worm cannot complain afterwards if people step on him.”

“In your dread of dictators you established a state of society in which every ward boss is a dictator, every private employer a dictator, every financier a dictator, all with the livelihood of the workers at his mercy, and no public responsibility.”
