Theodore Roosevelt
Our duty to the whole, including the unborn generations, bids us to restrain an unprincipled present-day minority from wasting the heritage of these unborn generations.

Theodore Roosevelt
For those who fight for it life has a flavor the sheltered will never know
Theodore Roosevelt
People ask the difference between a leader and a boss. The leader leads, and the boss drives.
Theodore Roosevelt
No nation deserves to exist if it permits itself to lose the stern and virile virtues and this without regard to whether the loss is due to the growth of a heartless and all-absorbing commercialism, to prolonged indulgence in luxury and soft, effortless ease, or to the deification of a warped and twisted sentimentality.
Theodore Roosevelt
Americans learn only from catastrophe and not from experience.
Theodore Roosevelt
When you play, play hard when you work, don't play at all.
Theodore Roosevelt
My power vanishes into thin air the instant that my fellow citizens, who are straight and honest, cease to believe that I represent them and fight for what is straight and honest. That is all the strength that I have.
Theodore Roosevelt
