Attended a very informative and proper tea on Campobello Island, where I got to know Eleanor Roosevelt through stories, re-enactment, and photographs. My Day is awesome: http://www.gwu.edu/~erpapers/myday/displaydoc.cfm?_y=1951&_f=md002015
Also, wedding dress!
And I'll roll with this and put up some of her quotes:
"History shows that a nation primarily focused on material things invariably is on a downward path." So....yeah. Polyvore, you-
And a personal favorite:
"A woman is like a tea bag-you can't tell how strong she is until you put her in hot water."
What I gathered from the tea is that E.R. was a very strong woman, who left a great legacy of valuable quotes behind her. You can always tell what a person was made of by his/her quotes.
