More quotes by Herbert Hoover
America - a great social and economic experiment, noble in motive and far-reaching in purpose.
Herbert Hoover
No public man can be just a little crooked. There is no such thing as a no-man's land between honesty and dishonesty.
Herbert Hoover
A boy has two jobs. One is just being a boy. The other is growing up to be a man.
Herbert Hoover
The whole inspiration of our civilization springs from the teachings of Christ and the lessons of the prophets. To read the Bible for these fundamentals is a necessity of American life.
Herbert Hoover
No prosaic description can portray the grandeur of 40 miles of rugged mountains rising beyond a placid lake in which each shadowy precipice and each purple gorge is reflected with a vividness that rivals the original.
Herbert Hoover
[N]o country can squander itself to prosperity on the ruin of its taxpayers.
Herbert Hoover
The fundamental business of the country, that is production and distribution of commodities, is on a sound and prosperous basis.
Herbert Hoover
Menaced by collectivist trends, we must seek revival of our strength in the spiritual foundations which are the bedrock of our republic. Democracy is the outgrowth of the religious conviction of the sacredness of every human life. On the religious side, its highest embodiment is the Bible on the political side, the Constitution.
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
True American Liberalism utterly denies the whole creed of socialism.
Herbert Hoover
Prosperity is just around the corner.
Herbert Hoover
In the larger view the major forces of the depression now lie outside of the United States, and our recuperation has been retarded by the unwarranted degree of fear and apprehension created by these outside forces.
Herbert Hoover
I outlived the bastards.
Herbert Hoover
The association of Mount Ararat and Noah, the staunch Christians who were massacred periodically by the Mohammedan Turks, and the Sunday School collections over fifty years for alleviating their miseries-all cumulate to impress the name Armenia on the front of the American mind.
Herbert Hoover
We need to add to the three R's, namely Reading, 'Riting, and 'Rithmetic, a fourth--- RESPONSIBILITY.
Herbert Hoover
Honest difference of views and honest debate are not disunity. They are the vital process of policy among free men.
Herbert Hoover
I protest that we fans are being emotionally starved and frustrated by long periods of perfect performance of these batteries. More over, when there are nothing but strikes and balls going on, you relapse into your worries over the Bank of England, or something else.
Herbert Hoover
The glory of the nation rests in the character of her men. And character comes from boyhood. Thus every boy is a challenge to his elders.
Herbert Hoover
The American people are doing their job today. They should be given a chance to show whether they wish to preserve the principles of individual and local responsibility and mutual self-help before they embark on what I believe to be a disastrous system. I feel sure they will succeed if given the opportunity.
Herbert Hoover
The spark of liberty in the mind and spirit of man cannot be long extinguished it will break into flames that will destroy every coercion which seems to limit it.
Herbert Hoover
