"Nothing we ever learn in this world is ever wasted and I have come to the conclusion that practically nothing we do ever stands by itself. It it is good, it will serve some good purpose in the future." -ER
I particularly highlighted this quote as I was reading her autobiography because her words are rather inspiring. As the first lady, she took steps that no other women would have dreamed of taking. She stepped out of her comfort zone and defied others expectations and so created the role of the first lady. No other first lady can compare to the work Eleanor Roosevelt did while she was in the White House and even afterwards until her death.
It is true that everything she learned from others and what she taught was not wasted time in the White House. She built upon her goals and made a name for herself. I see her in a completely different light and expect more of the future first ladies' of this nation.
