Attention Quote by Eleanor Roosevelt

“My life can be so arranged that I can live on whatever I have. If I cannot live as I have lived in the past, I shall live differently, and living differently does not mean living with less attention to the things that make life gracious and pleasant or with less enjoyment of things of the mind.” quote by Eleanor Roosevelt — Download Open image
