    No group and no government can properly prescribe precisely what should constitute the body of knowledge with which true education is concerned.

    Somewhere along the line of development we discover who we really are, and then we make our real decision for which we are responsible. Make that decision primarily for yourself because you can never really live anyone else’s life not even your child’s. The influence you exert is through your own life and what you become yourself.
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)

    You are wonderful. I love and honor you.... [ellipsis in source] Lead your own life, attend to your charities, cultivate yourself, travel when you wish, bring up the children, run your house. I’ll give you all the freedom you wish and all the money I can but—leave me my business and politics.
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
