More quotes by Herbert Hoover
But I would emphasize again that social and economic solutions, as such, will not avail to satisfy the aspirations of the people unless they conform with the traditions of our race, deeply grooved in their sentiments through a century and a half of struggle for ideals of life that are rooted in religion and fed from purely spiritual springs.
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
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 advancement of knowledge must be translated into increasing health and education for the children.
Herbert Hoover
Presidents cannot always kick evil-minded persons out of the front door. Such persons are often selected by the electors to represent them.

Herbert Hoover

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
A good many things go around in the dark besides Santa Claus.
Herbert Hoover
The worst evil of disregard for some law is that it destroys respect for all laws.
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
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
Honor is not the exclusive property of any political party.
Herbert Hoover
The rigid volunteer rules of right and wrong in sports are second only to religious faith in moral training.
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
My boyhood ambition was to be able to earn my own living, without the help of anybody, anywhere.
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
