Eleanor Roosevelt:
It's hard to realize you can't meet the need of someone you care terribly for. It's even harder learning to accept what others can't give you. I remember one night, years ago, we sat in the living room at Hyde Park talking to Mama. She spoke straight to the point. She said, 'Do you still love Eleanor?', and he said 'Yes.' She said, 'But you're IN love with Lucy Mercer,' and he said 'Yes.' I knew if I stayed in that room another instant, I should be sick, all over Mama's expensive carpet. I kept thinking, 'All right. All right, you're not in love with me, well I'm not in love with you either. And I never will be from this moment on. If we stay together, for whatever reason, the children, your career, even if we spend the rest of our lives together, it can never be as it was. We can never be lovers again.'
