Eleanor Roosevelt on having control over your own emotions & feelings:
"No one can make you feel inferior without your consent."
Eleanor Roosevelt once argued that “when you adopt the standards and the values of someone else or a community… you surrender your own integrity. You become, to the extent of your surrender, less of a human being.”

Eleanor emerged from the ordeal a different woman. “I knew more about the human heart.… I became a more tolerant person … but I think more determined to try for certain ultimate objectives.”106 Mrs. Roosevelt commenced the metamorphosis from a private to a public person.
