More quotes by Herbert Hoover
Fishing is much more than fish. It is the great occasion when we may return to the fine simplicity of our forefathers.
Herbert Hoover
I come of Quaker stock. My ancestors were persecuted for their beliefs. Here they sought and found religious freedom. By blood and conviction I stand for religious tolerance both in act and in spirit.
Herbert Hoover
Baseball is the greatest of all team sports.
Herbert Hoover
American life is builded ... upon that fundamental philosophy announced by the Savior nineteen centuries ago ... [It] can not survive with the defense of Cain, Am I my brother's keeper?
Herbert Hoover
Every collectivist revolution rides in on a Trojan horse of Emergency. It was a tactic of Lenin, Hitler and Mussolini.... The invasion of New Deal Collectivism was introduced by this same Trojan horse.
Herbert Hoover
A good many things go around in the dark besides Santa Claus.
Herbert Hoover
I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.
Herbert Hoover
Prosperity cannot be restored by raids upon the public Treasury.
Herbert Hoover
Lots of people committed crimes during the year who would not have done so if they had been fishing. The increase of crime is among those deprived of the regenerations that impregnate the mind and character of the fisherman.
Herbert Hoover
The advancement of knowledge must be translated into increasing health and education for the children.
Herbert Hoover
Peace is not made at the council table or by treaties, but in the hearts of men.
Herbert Hoover
The President is not only the leader of a party, he is the President of the whole people. He must interpret the conscience of America. He must guide his conduct by the idealism of our people.
Herbert Hoover
Any lack of confidence in the economic future or the basic strength of business in the United States is foolish.
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 pause between the errors and trials of the day and the hopes of the night.
Herbert Hoover
Please find me a one-armed economist so we will not always hear, On the other hand...
Herbert Hoover
My boyhood ambition was to be able to earn my own living, without the help of anybody, anywhere.
Herbert Hoover
The gods do not deduct from man's allotted span the hours spent in fishing.
Herbert Hoover
Economic depression cannot be cured by legislative action or executive pronouncement. Economic wounds must be healed by the action of the cells of the economic body - the producers and consumers themselves.
Herbert Hoover
The joys of fishing are not confined to the hours near the water.
