Eleanor Roosevelt

de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception

 

 

During World War II, Eleanor Roosevelt supported the troops by volunteering with the American Red Cross, where she handed out cups of coffee, newspapers, sandwiches, candy, and cigarettes to soldiers heading out to army camps and ports, according to the American Red Cross. "I loved it," the organization quoted her having said. "I simply ate it up."
