A Quote by Eleanor Roosevelt

Nothing was ever accomplished by anyone who said 'It can't be done.' — © Eleanor Roosevelt
Nothing was ever accomplished by anyone who said 'It can't be done.'
Anyone who has ever accomplished anything of any consequence, didn't know how to get what they want, they only knew that they were going to get it. You don't know how to do something, until after you've done it. Our problem is, we set goals to do what we think we can do or what we've already done. There's no inspiration in that.
This is, for an accomplished Latino, an accomplished African American, an accomplished anyone who disproves stereotypes, it's a constant battle in your life.
I've done everything - All-Stars, Olympics. The only thing I haven't done is win MVP of the league. There's nothing else I haven't accomplished.
Nothing has ever gotten in my way. They say, 'Wally, you're a girl, you can't do that.' I said, 'Guess what, doesn't matter what you are, you can still do it if you want to do it,' and I like to do things that nobody's ever done before.
You always wonder whether the attacks on my capabilities came from an honest evaluation of my accomplishments or from stereotypical presumptions that we, people of color, just can't do it, for some reason. This is, for an accomplished Latino, an accomplished African American, an accomplished anyone who disproves stereotypes, it's a constant battle in your life.
All that I did," she said, "everything I tried to do. All for nothing." Nothing is done entirely for nothing, said the fox of dreams. Nothing is wasted. You are older, and you have made decisions, and you are not the fox you were yesterday. Take what you have learned, and move on.
Everything that I have ever hoped to accomplish, she has done and done better than anyone I have ever seen.
There is nothing more fun than hanging around with friends and banging on instruments. Anyone who has ever done it knows that this is true.
When he sat alone in the darkness and cried and was done, all done with it, nothing had changed. His leg still hurt, it was still dark, he was still alone and the self-pity had accomplished nothing.
Nothing is ever accomplished by a reasonable man.
Accomplished. I like that word. I feel like I've done a lot, but accomplished doesn't mean the end of the road. You can continue to feel accomplished.
I have done nothing; the Word has done and accomplished everything.... I let the Word do its work!
Nothing of any importance has ever been accomplished by a pessimist.
Nothing happens overnight for anyone. To become a skilled, accomplished artiste, you need time to work on yourself first.
Nothing great in the world has ever been accomplished without passion.
Accomplishment is such a patronizing, dangerous word, isn't it? I haven't really accomplished anything. The most accomplished thing I've done is to have lived this long - 81.
