Theodore Roosevelt
The worst of all fears is the fear of living
Theodore Roosevelt
I'm as strong as a bull moose and you can use me to the limit.

Theodore Roosevelt
A grove of giant redwood or sequoias should be kept just as we keep a great and beautiful cathedral.
Theodore Roosevelt
The beauty and charm of the wilderness are his for the asking, for the edges of the wilderness lie close beside the beaten roads of the present travel.
Theodore Roosevelt
We [must] hold the just balance and set ourselves as resolutely against improper corporate influence on the one hand as against demagogy and mob rule on the other.
Theodore Roosevelt
What I am to be, I am becoming.
Theodore Roosevelt
My hat's in the ring. The fight is on and I'm stripped to the buff.
Theodore Roosevelt
A just war is in the long run far better for a man's soul than the most prosperous peace.
Theodore Roosevelt
The man who does not think it was America's duty to fight for her own sake in view of the infamous conduct of Germany toward us stands on a level with a man who wouldn't think it necessary to fight in a private quarrel because his wife's face was slapped.
Theodore Roosevelt
