Top 10 Blanche Wiesen Cook Quotes (2025 Update)

Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Like traditional upper class families, there are nannies and servants, and the children, you know, come in to say good-night before they go to bed. There’s very little private time with the children in the early years. Actually, there’s much more private time with the children in the 20s.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Eleanor Roosevelt started off almost every early article she wrote, starting with, “My mother was the most beautiful woman I’d ever seen.” And I think her life was a constant and continual and lifelong contrast with her mother.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Women who love women, who choose women to nurture and support and to create a living environment in which to work creatively and independently, are lesbians.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “I think Eleanor Roosevelt’s so popular at Allenswood because it’s the first time she is, number one, free. But it’s the first time somebody really recognizes her own leadership abilities and her own scholarly abilities.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Politics is not an isolated, individualist adventure. Women really need to emerge as a power to be the countervailing power to the men. And Eleanor Roosevelt’s really the dynamo and the spearhead of that effort.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Eleanor Roosevelt never thought that she was attractive. She never thought that she was really sufficiently appealing. And I think her whole life was a response to her effort to get her mother to pay attention to her, to love her, and to love her as much as she loved her brothers.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “Eleanor Roosevelt doesn’t ever do anything that is going to hurt her husband. She tries things out on him. She gets permission to do things. The amazing thing, I think, historically, is that he says, “Go do it. If you can make this happen, I’ll follow you.””
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “And Grandmother Hall really imagines that she can raise Eleanor and her two brothers differently than these children were raised. And if she is very strict and everything is very regimented and ordered and disciplined, that they will become the perfect children who her own children did not become.”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “And even when success comes, as I am sure it will, bear in mind that there are more quiet and enviable joys than to be among the most sought after women at a ball...”
Blanche Wiesen Cook Quote: “And you can really see in all of these issues that are priorities for Eleanor Roosevelt, where the compromises are painful, the compromises are hard, and the difficulties between them really begin to loom very large by 1936, by 1938.”
