More quotes by Herbert Hoover
The course of unbalanced budgets is the road to ruin
Herbert Hoover
While I can make no claim for having introduced the term rugged individualism, I should be proud to have invented it. It has been used by American leaders for over a half-century in eulogy of those God-fearing men and women of honesty whose stamina and character and fearless assertion of rights led them to make their own way in life.
Herbert Hoover
The spiritual uplift, the goodwill, cheerfulness and optimism that accompanies every expedition to the outdoors is the peculiar spirit that our people need in times of suspicion and doubt...No other organized joy has values comparable to the outdoor experience.

Herbert Hoover
We supported the cooperative movement among farmers. The movement was still young and stubbornly opposed to the commercial distributors. I believed it to be one of the most helpful undertakings, for according to my social theories any organization run by citizens for their own welfare is preferable to the same action by the government.
Herbert Hoover
Let me remind you that credit is the lifeblood of business, the lifeblood of prices and jobs.
Herbert Hoover
National character cannot be built by law. It is the sum of the moral fiber of its individuals.
Herbert Hoover
Honor is not the exclusive property of any political party.
Herbert Hoover
Liberalism is a force truly of the spirit proceeding from the deep realization that economic freedom cannot be sacrificed if political freedom is to be preserved.
Herbert Hoover
