Theodore Roosevelt
No ability, no strength and force, no power of intellect or power of wealth, shall avail us, if we have not the root of right living in us.
Theodore Roosevelt
We want the active and zealous help of every man far-sighted enough to realize the importance from the standpoint of the nation's welfare in the future of preserving the forests.
Theodore Roosevelt
There are rainy days in autumn and stormy days in winter when the rocking chair in front of the fire simply demands an accompanying book.
