Roosevelt

Famous quotes containing the word roosevelt:

    The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.

    No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)

    One reason—perhaps the chief—of the virility of the Roosevelts is [their] very democratic spirit. They have never felt that because they were born in a good position they could put their hands in their pockets and succeed. They have felt, rather, that being born in a good position, there is no excuse for them if they did not do their duty by the community.
    —Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
