Blanche Wiesen Cook Quotes
I think Eleanor Roosevelt always had a most incredible comfort writing letters. I mean, she was in the habit of writing letters. And that's where she allowed her fantasies to flourish.

And it really starts with her letters to her father, who is lifelong her primary love.
