Blanche Wiesen Cook Quotes About House

• One of the things for me, as a biographer, that is so significant is for Eleanor Roosevelt - the child who never had a home of her own, who lives in her grandmother's home and then goes to school and then gets married and lives in her mother-in-law's homes, and then in public housing (like the White House and the State House) - housing becomes for Eleanor Roosevelt the most important issue.

• Es interesante para mí que realmente una de las primeras cosas que [Eleanor Roosevelt]hizo como Primera Dama fue recopilar las cartas de su padre y publicar un libro titulado Las cartas de mi padre, esencialmente, caza mayor, Las cartas de Elliott Roosevelt. Y realmente fue un acto de redención, realmente uno de sus primeros actos de redención cuando entró en la Casa Blanca. Iba a redimir el honor de su padre. Y la publicación de sus cartas, volver a conectar con su infancia realmente la fortaleció para seguir adelante en los difíciles años de la Casa Blanca.

• She really is a completely different First Lady. Eleanor Roosevelt was not going to suffer and withdraw in the White House. And I think he's a very different President. He does not want his wife to suffer and withdraw in the White House. And they really are partners. They're partners in a big house where there are two separate courts, and they both know they have two separate courts. But these are courts that are allied in purpose, united in vision.
