tsukikageCan anyone help me figure out when/where/in what context Eleanor Roosevelt said the following? My Google-fu's failing me.
We must prevent human tragedy rather than run around trying to save ourselves after an event has already occurred. Unfortunately, history clearly shows that we arrive at catastrophe by failing to meet the situation, by failing to act when we should have acted. The opportunity passes us by and the next disaster is always more difficult and compounded than the last one.
