Men can never escape being governed. Either they must govern themselves or they must submit to being governed by others (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
There should be relentless exposure of and attack upon every evil practice, whether in politics, in business, or in social life. I hail as a benefactor every writer or speaker, every man who, on the platform, or in book, magazine or newspaper, with merciless severity makes such attack, provided always that he in his turn remembers that the attack is of use only if it is absolutely truthful (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
No man can lead a public career really worth leading, no man can act with rugged independence in serious crises, nor strike at great abuses, nor afford to make powerful and unscrupulous foes, if he is himself vulnerable in his private character (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Get action. Do things; be sane; don’t fritter away your time; create, act, take a place wherever you are and be somebody; get action (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The joy of living is his who has the heart to demand it. Life is a great adventure, and I want to say to you, accept it in such a spirit (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Conservation is a great moral issue, for it involves the patriotic duty of insuring the safety and continuance of the nation (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The fool who has not sense to discriminate between what is good and what is bad is well nigh as dangerous as the man who does discriminate and yet chooses the bad (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Avoid the base hypocrisy of condemning in one man what you pass over in silence when committed by another (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Success, the real success, does not depend upon the position you hold but upon how you carry yourself in that position (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The forces that tend for evil are great and terrible, but the forces of truth and love and courage and honesty and generosity and sympathy are also stronger than ever before (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
It is both foolish and wicked to teach the average man who is not well off that some wrong or injustice has been done him, and that he should hope for redress elsewhere than in his own industry, honesty, and intelligence (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
There is nothing more practical than the preservation of beauty, than the preservation of anything that appeals to the higher emotions of mankind (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
I am simply unable to understand the value placed by so many people upon great wealth (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
If we are to be really great people, we must strive in good faith to play a great part in the world. We cannot avoid meeting great issues. All that we can determine for ourselves is whether we shall meet them well or ill (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
We must remember not to judge any public servant by any one act, and especially should we beware of attacking the men who are merely the occasions and not the cause of disaster (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The only man who makes no mistakes is the man who never does anything. Do not be afraid to make mistakes providing you do not make the same one twice (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Of all forms of tyranny the least attractive and the most vulgar is the tyranny of mere wealth (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
I believe in a graduated income tax on big fortunes, and in... a graduated inheritance tax on big fortunes,... increasing rapidly in amount with the size of the estate (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Much has been given us, and much will rightfully be expected from us. We have duties to others and duties to ourselves, and we can shrink neither (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The world wants the kind of men who do not shrink from temporary defeats in life; but come again and wrestle triumph from defeat (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Let us show, not merely in great crises, but in every day of life, qualities of practical intelligence, of hardihood and endurance, and above all, the power of devotion to a lofty ideal (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
If we seek merely swollen, slothful ease and ignoble peace, if we shrink from the hard contests where men must win at the hazard of their lives and at the risk of all they hold dear, then bolder and stronger peoples will pass us by, and will win for themselves the domination of the world (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
In the history of mankind many republics have risen, have flourished for a less or greater time, and then have fallen because their citizens lost the power of governing themselves and thereby of governing their state; and in no way has this loss of power been so often and so clearly shown as in the tendency to turn the government into a government primarily for the benefit of one class instead of a government for the benefit of the people as a whole (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
I never keep boys waiting. It’s a hard trial for a boy to wait (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
This country has nothing to fear from the crooked man who fails. We put him in jail. It is the crooked man who succeeds who is a threat to this country (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
Alone of human beings the good and wise mother stands on a plane of equal honor with the bravest soldier; for she has gladly gone down to the brink of the chasm of darkness to bring back the children in whose hands rests the future of the years (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The ordinary air fighter is an extraordinary man and the extraordinary air fighter stands as one in a million among his fellows (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The chief factor in any man’s success or failure must be his own character (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
There is a point, of course, where a man must take the isolated peak and break with all his associates for clear principle; but until that time comes he must work, if he would be of use, with men as they are. As long as the good in them overbalances the evil, let him work with them for the best that can be obtained (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
The great lawyer who employs his talent and his learning in the highly emunerative task of enabling a very wealthy client to override or circumvent the law is doing all that in him lies to encourage the growth in the country of a spirit of dumb anger against all laws and of disbelief in their efficacy (Theodore Roosevelt Quotes)
