Parting Thoughts
The following are quotes by Eleanor Roosevelt (1884-1962), First Lady of the United States, United Nations Diplomat, and humanitarian.
Do what you feel in your heart to be right, for you’ll be criticized anyway. You’ll be damned if you do, and damned if you don’t.
Learn from the mistakes of others. You can’t live long enough to make them all yourself.
It takes as much energy to wish as it does to plan.
You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
It is better to light one small candle than to curse the darkness.
