If, in any individual, university training produces a taste for refined idleness, a distaste for sustained effort, a barren intellectual arrogance, or a sense of superfluous aloofness from the world of real men who do the world's real work, then it has harmed that individual.
Theodore Roosevelt

Show me a man who makes no mistakes, and I will show you a man who doesn't do things.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
There are good men and bad men of all nationalities, creeds and colors and if this world of ours is ever to become what we hope some day it may become, it must be by the general recognition that the man's heart and soul, the man's worth and actions, determine his standing.
Theodore Roosevelt

Wars are, of course, as a rule to be avoided but they are far better than certain kinds of peace.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
The performance of duty, and not an indulgence in vapid ease and vapid pleasure, is all that makes life worth while.
Theodore Roosevelt
Image
Every person who invests in well-selected real estate in a growing section of a prosperous community adopts the surest and safest method of becoming independent, for real estate is the basis of wealth.
