More quotes by Herbert Hoover
The worst evil of disregard for some law is that it destroys respect for all laws.
Herbert Hoover
Let me remind you that credit is the lifeblood of business, the lifeblood of prices and jobs.
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
I believe not only that religious faith will be victorious, but that it is vital to humankind that it shall be. We may differ in form and particulars in our religious faith. Those are matters that are sacred to each of our inner sanctuaries. It is our privilege to decline to argue them. Their real demonstration is the lives that we live.
Herbert Hoover
Wisdom consists not so much in knowing what to do in the ultimate as in knowing what to do next.
Herbert Hoover
There is no other book so various as the Bible, nor one so full of concentrated wisdom.
Herbert Hoover
My country owes me nothing. It gave me, as it gives every boy and girl, a chance. It gave me schooling, independence of action, opportunity for service and honor.
Herbert Hoover

Herbert Hoover
I suppose I could have called in the whole of the Army, but what was the use? All I had to do was call in Main Street itself.
Herbert Hoover
We have gold because we cannot trust governments
Herbert Hoover
It is well to remember that the office of Chief Executive is in part a symbol of the nation and that leaders in a nation may differ in their own house but they have instant solidarity in the presence of foreign attack
Herbert Hoover
If the law is upheld only by government officials, then all law is at an end.
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
Sportsmanship, next to the Church, is the greatest teacher of morals.
Herbert Hoover
I'm the only person of distinction who has ever had a depression named for him.
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
It is just as important that business keep out of government as that government keep out of business.
Herbert Hoover
The pause between the errors and trials of the day and the hopes of the night.
Herbert Hoover
Any practice of business which would dominate the country by its own selfish interest is a destruction of equality of opportunity. Government in business, except in emergency, is also a destruction of equal opportunity and the incarnation of tyranny through bureaucracy.
Herbert Hoover
It is always possible that occasional individuals may have overstepped the law and humanity in treatment of criminals and those charged with crime, and if so, they should be severely punished.
Herbert Hoover
