Strong Women - Eleanor Roosevelt

Quote:
A woman is like a tea bag...
you don't know how strong she is
until you put her in hot water.

More than one word, but simple for a strong lady.

We didn't go but I remember that evening Dad took us somewhere and we drove by the hotel where she was speaking. Big signs outside announced the event and I still remember how sad I felt that I couldn't go inside and hear her.
